About Reba

Meet Reba. She has dedicated her life to caring for others, and now it's time for her to find a loving family of her own. Reba spent nearly five weeks in a shelter before being welcomed into foster care, where her calm, gentle nature quickly shone through. Initially, she was found to be pregnant and diagnosed with heartworm, but none of that dampened her spirit. After delivering eight beautiful puppies and nurturing them with incredible love and attention, she is now ready for a fresh start. Reba is believed to be around 4 years old and has the wonderful qualities of a Rhodesian Ridgeback. She is gentle, calm, and incredibly sweet. This adaptable girl quickly adjusts to new environments, gets along with dogs of all sizes, and walks beautifully on a leash. She does have a preference for canine companions and isn’t fond of cats. Reba is crate trained and can also be left out in the home without any problems. Fully vaccinated and spayed, she is currently undergoing heartworm treatment, which will complete on 9/3/26. Reba is seeking a home where she can finally receive the love she deserves—a soft bed, a kind family, and the chance to be someone's cherished companion. If you’re ready to welcome a loyal friend into your life, Reba can’t wait to meet you. Click apply to start the adoption process.
