Meet Richard: Our Resilient Little Legend! 🐾 He might be just a 5-month-old baby, but Richard is already proving that a little extra care is no match for a big heart. Richard was born with Manx Syndrome, a condition resulting from the incomplete development of the tail and spinal cord. What does this mean for Richard? Because of his condition, Richard is incontinent and will need to wear a diaper for the rest of his life. While that might sound like a lot at first, don't let it fool you—diapered dogs live full, happy, and messy-free lives! Our team has personal experience with diapered pups and can tell you firsthand: they do absolutely great once you're in a routine. Why you'll love him: Richard is a curious, friendly, and incredibly loyal pup who doesn't let his "special gear" slow him down for a second. Whether he's playing with his favorite toys or looking for a lap to snuggle in, he is an amazing companion who would thrive in just about any loving home. If you're looking for a unique, resilient, and playful best friend, Richard is waiting to meet you!
