Introducing River! 🌊 Imagine a world where resilience meets love, and that’s exactly what River embodies! This charming soul was rescued from a grim situation, trapped in an overgrown pen with nothing but murky green water and no food. Can you believe it? At intake, he weighed a mere 18 pounds, and now, thanks to the immense love and care he’s received, he’s thriving at 25 pounds and counting! 🎉 The vet predicts that once he’s fully grown, he’ll be a robust 30 pounds. This sweet boy is still under a year old, but don’t let his age fool you. His journey of recovery is nothing short of miraculous! River may start off as a tad shy when meeting new faces, but oh, once he warms up, he showers his humans with love! 💖 He’s affectionate, playful, and is just itching to start the next chapter of his life, whether that's in a foster home or as a forever friend. River is proudly leash-trained, crate-trained, and is on his way to mastering house training. He’s a little attention-seeker too—if he feels ignored, he has no problem making his needs known! 🐾 He’s been staying at the vet hospital, which has been a great healing space for him, but sweet River is getting a bit restless. He truly deserves a cozy home to call his own. If you’re on the hunt for a loyal, loving companion with a gentle heart and an inspiring survivor's spirit, River might just be the perfect match for you! How about that?
