Meet Rio! This charming pup, who looks like an Oreo cookie himself, is a bundle of energy and smarts. Rio loves to train and will do almost anything for a tasty treat, already knowing commands like "sit," "come," "down," and "hand target." He's a big fan of fetch and tug-of-war, but is still learning the art of sharing his toys. Rio also has a great sense of humor, evident in his playful antics and his belief that he should be able to drive. He's working on his doggy social skills and is looking for a canine companion who is his size or larger and can handle his enthusiastic play style. Rio is not a fan of cats, so a cat-free home is a must. He's crate-trained and enjoys car rides, though he's still getting used to being restrained.
Ideal Home
Rio would do best in a home with a sturdy dog, his size or larger, who is patient and can help guide his boisterous play. He needs an owner who enjoys entertaining antics and is willing to provide extra guidance. A cat-free environment is essential.
