🌟 **Meet River!** 🌟 This charming 3-year-old boy is a delightful blend of golden beige Ridgeback and Lab, ready to steal hearts! 🎉 Born on February 6, 2022, River made his grand entrance into the world at the Clayton County Humane Society alongside his wonderful mom, Kelly, who is also looking for her forever family. Isn't that just heartwarming? ❤️ River is quite the impressive individual! He’s fully vetted, which means he’s been microchipped, neutered, and is up-to-date on all his vaccinations—including rabies. He’s heartworm tested, on both prevention and flea control, and has completed his deworming. Talk about a healthy pup ready for new adventures!🎾 Now, River did have a chance at a forever home when he was just a puppy, but due to a lifestyle change, he and his brother, Jasper, found themselves back at the shelter after 6 months. 😟 Medium to larger dogs often get overlooked, and it breaks the heart to think of two sweet pups like them waiting for their turn for love. Living in a shelter for 3 long years is no picnic; however, River and Jasper enjoy some beautiful dog walks and outdoor adventures whenever they can! 🏞️ Being a little timid and shy, River would absolutely thrive as an only dog, where he can feel safe and vibrant. He’s friendly towards people, but kids might be a bit overwhelming for him at first. He needs a patient soul to help him blossom outside the chaotic environment of shelter life. 🦋 With a big backyard to romp around in, this guy would be in doggy heaven! River has a zest for life and is a dynamic companion for anyone who loves the outdoors. 💖 He’s searching for a loving family who understands that building trust takes time and care—and he shows his gratitude with a wagging tail and warm disposition whenever treat time rolls around! Are you ready to give River the forever home he’s been dreaming of? A little quality one-on-one time spent with this gentle giant can reveal all the captivating personality he has waiting to shine! If you adore sweet pups and have the heart to foster this bond, then River is the one for you! 🏡✨ 🐾 **Remember, to adopt River, applicant must apply through the Buddy App.** Let's make River's dreams come true—apply today!
