About RYE RYE GS

Meet Rye Rye! This sweet 16-month-old, 40 lb girl is a survivor, rescued from a high-kill shelter. She arrived scared and unsure, clearly having not always known kindness. Initially fearful of people, Rye Rye found solace and learned to trust through the companionship of other dogs. She's still a shy girl who needs time to warm up, preferring affection on her own terms. Once she feels safe, she forms a quiet, loyal, and truly special bond.

Ideal Home

Rye Rye would thrive in a home with another friendly, confident dog to show her the ropes. She can also do well with children who understand the importance of giving her space and allowing her to approach them at her own pace.

Ongoing Health

No specific health conditions are mentioned.

Training & Support

Rye Rye is still learning to trust and needs patience. She walks well on a leash. It's important to let her approach you for affection and go at her pace to build her confidence.
