About Riven (PUPPY)

Hiya Friends! My name is Riven and I'm an adorable 15 week old male Shepherd mix. My siblings, mom, and I were in a pretty bad situation before coming to the rescue. We weren't being taken care of and were basically left for trash. Thankfully, we are healthy and thriving now! My mom is clearly a German Shepherd, but my dad was the milk bone delivery pup, so we have no idea what I'm mixed with! Wouldn't it be cool to do a DNA test?! I'm just a little guy and don't know anything yet. I need a patient adopter to teach me house and crate training, and eventually obedience when I'm a little older. Being so young, I'll get along with anyone and everyone. If you have kids, dogs, cats, turtles, and nosey neighbors, we will all be best friends! I would love to go on walks, have lots and lots of play time, tummy rubs, pup-cups, play in the water in the summer, and go on hikes when I'm bigger – all the super cool things the big dogs get to do! If you are ready to commit to a puppy and are looking for a handsome, friendly, funny, playful, and energetic new companion - I'm your guy!

Ideal Home

I'll do great with kids, other dogs, and cats.

Ongoing Health

All dogs are up-to-date on vaccinations, heart-worm testing, and monthly preventatives. Puppies under 6-months of age will require a spay/neuter contract.

Training & Support

I need full obedience training. I need a patient adopter to teach me house and crate training and eventually obedience when I'm a little older.
