🐾 Step into Ryder’s life, a delightful 4.5-year-old, 48-pound bundle of love! Imagine a loyal sidekick who’s just waiting to be your number one cuddle buddy; this is Ryder! With a heart so big it could warm even the puffiest of hearts, he’s on a mission to find his forever family. If you’re in search of sweetness wrapped in fur, Ryder is here to bring joy into your home. Let’s talk about the good stuff, because Ryder is packed with it! 🎉 This talented pup already shows off his command skills with Come, Sit, Shake, and High Five! He’s like that little kid in class who just can’t wait to answer a question—excited and eager! Ryder is also a superstar in the car. Just say the magical words "Load up!" and in he jumps, ready for adventure, calm and composed in the back seat. And let’s not forget, pup cups? Oh honey, those are his jam! 🍦 Ryder is not just a cuddler; he’s a supreme, snuggle enthusiast with what we call a perfect "off switch." He’s basically the velcro dog of dreams, sticking close to his human like butter on toast! He has impeccable manners when it comes to doggy introductions and respects grumpy seniors like they are royalty. Treat time? Ryder takes them with the utmost gentleness, proving that he can be a food-motivated student! 👨‍🏫 But wait, there’s more! This boy has an adventurous spirit—he adores walks, though sometimes they turn into epic sniffing expeditions. The world is his endless canvas of scents! 🎶 With a little training, we suspect he’d be a scent work superstar. Inside the house, he enjoys fetch and loves Kong-style toys. Sofas were once a mystery to him, but they’ve quickly become his prime snuggle territory. What’s he working on, you ask? Well, Ryder is just polishing up a few skills. He can be a puller on the leash, but a good harness makes him a champ! While he’s mastering the stay command, he does great in the car and is learning to generalize that trust when he’s outside. Recall? Pretty solid—unless there are chickens involved! 🐔 Those feathery friends sure know how to pique his interest. Ryder can be a bit cautious around new humans but introduces himself quickly, especially when treats come into play! 🌟 Now, who would be the perfect match for Ryder? He dreams of a loyal companion who enjoys adventures and cozy couch time. Someone who’s willing to continue his training journey will win his heart. Ryder is eager to please, and it won’t take long for him to find his groove! He’s ready to find his forever home, so if you’re looking for a snuggly, slightly goofy best friend who will go for walks, sniff the world just right, and cuddle like there’s no tomorrow, Ryder is your guy! 🥰 Don’t wait any longer—*apply through the Buddy App* and let this delightful soul become part of your family! Ryder is being fostered in the Wichita, KS area!
