About Rj

RJ is a 6½-year-old mixed-breed dog with a striking blend of American Pit Bull Terrier, Australian Cattle Dog, Labrador Retriever, Boxer, and German Shepherd—athletic, sharp, and as loyal as they come. Rescued from a tough start in Texas and then adopted in Washington, RJ has learned how to trust and love his people fiercely. He bonds deeply with those he knows, greeting you with wags and enthusiastic kisses before settling in with a toy. He thrives on daily activity: running, hiking, fetch, and long walks are his perfect outlets, especially with familiar people and bigger female dogs. RJ is a toy enthusiast (and destroyer if unsupervised) who enjoys training sessions for mental stimulation and is quick to pick up new commands. Once he’s worked off his energy, he’s all about cozy napping on the couch or dog bed. RJ needs a home with space to roam—an apartment isn’t ideal, he does best with secure fencing and a yard. He isn’t safe with cats, small animals, or young children due to his prey drive and resource guarding. While he can live with calm, confident female dogs, he’s unpredictable with male dogs and needs supervised toy time. He has strong separation anxiety, so having someone home most of the time or another compatible dog is important. RJ is crate trained, a champ on car rides, and wants a committed, experienced owner who will give him structure—and a little patience. Think you might be RJ’s perfect match? He can’t wait to meet someone ready for real partnership. Start your journey together! Apply now.
