About Ricky

Ricky is a 7-month-old Heeler/Lab mix who’s convinced he’s a lap dog. He’s always ready to shower you with affection and excitement, whether you’ve been gone a minute or an hour. If you’re looking for a snuggler, Ricky delivers—he’ll wiggle right into your arms and settle in for some serious cuddling. His energy stays on the lower side, happy to sprawl out on the couch with his favorite toy, though he’ll bolt around for the occasional zoomies. Give him time and he catches onto things quickly; basic commands are coming along fast for this smart, eager pup. Everything about Ricky says ‘ideal first dog.’ He plays well with other dogs, gets along with cats, and has a gentle touch with kids. House training is in progress, but his respectful, mellow nature makes him easy to guide. Ricky’s already neutered and his vaccinations are current. He’s got everything in place for a smooth start in a new family. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
