Meet Ryder, a charming young pup with a heart full of love and a spirit just waiting to shine! This incredible soul found himself at the NYCACC, a shelter facing overwhelming challenges. Surrendered by his previous owners simply because they were expecting a child, Ryder was at risk of losing his life, but a hero stepped in to save him! 🌟 He landed in foster care and proved himself to be nothing short of a gem! Ryder is approximately 4 years old and weighs 100 pounds of pure delightful energy! 🐶 His breed is a Pit Bull, known for their loyalty and affectionate nature – both of which Ryder embodies to the fullest! Did you know that Pit Bulls are actually known for their loving disposition? This boy is neutered and ready to find his forever home where he can share all his love. 💖 He’s a social butterfly, getting along famously with both other dogs and new friends he meets. What about children, you ask? Well, we’re not quite sure, but he certainly seems to be friendly and open to making new pals. 🐾 And guess what? He’s a pro on the leash, making walks feel like jogs through the park. 🌳 Ryder is house-trained, crate-trained, and has even mastered the art of ringing bells to let you know he needs to go outside! How smart is that? 🧠 He adores his chew toys and absolutely loves to play ball, so you can definitely expect lots of fun-filled moments together! Whether it’s hiking or just playing in the yard, Ryder can’t wait to share those experiences with a loving family. This good boy listens well and is eager to please, making him a wonderful companion. He’s quite the gentle giant, and while he prefers a calm demeanor, he knows how to bring the fun! 🎉 If it sounds like Ryder could be the missing piece to your family puzzle, don't wait!
