Your new best friend is just one click away. Meet Raphael! This stunning young pup sports a mostly white coat with hints of brown on his ears and weighs in at 22 pounds at just 13 weeks old—he’s destined to be a large dog when he grows up. Raphael originally lived in an outdoor kennel but has adapted to indoor life quickly. He does beautifully in his crate while his foster parent is away and has had no accidents there, showing promising progress toward housetraining. At night, he settles comfortably in an open pen alongside his puppy pals. Raphael is an affectionate and social fellow, thriving on the company of people and other dogs. He loves to play with his foster family’s larger dog and would benefit from a canine companion in his forever home. Chew toys and bones keep him happily entertained! While he’s still working on potty training, he’s eager to learn and will need continued guidance in his new home. Looking for a cuddle buddy? Raphael is ready to fill that role—he loves being near his humans and showering them with affection. He’ll be available for adoption after March 27th. Adopters must live within an hour’s drive of St. Louis, MO. Vaccinations are current, and Raphael will be neutered and microchipped as part of his adoption. Start your journey together! Apply now.
