About Ridzo

Ridzo, a sweet 5-year-old Boxer/Pointer mix, recently found himself in need of help when he approached a local gym. Weighing about 50 pounds, this calm and humble boy has a grateful demeanor that's captured the hearts of everyone around him. He has faced quite the challenge, recently diagnosed with Lyme and heartworm diseases. While he's been treated for hookworms and Lyme, he will require dedicated care for his heartworms before he can be neutered. Although Ridzo is learning how to navigate life as an inside dog, he does potty outdoors, though he sometimes has accidents in his kennel, likely due to his previous outdoor living conditions. He adores other dogs and is also friendly with cats, showing a gentle disposition. If you're interested in providing Ridzo with a permanent home or even fostering him during his recovery, please fill out an application. He truly deserves a loving family that can give him the care he needs as he heals. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let's get started.
