About Rico
Meet Rico, a large, handsome Pit Bull Terrier looking for a second chance. He was surrendered to the shelter when his owner could no longer care for him, and he’s hoping to find a loving home that will help him feel secure. Rico is cautious but sweet. After being nervous during his first car ride, he quickly settled down and enjoyed a pup cup from Starbucks. At home, Rico took his time getting comfortable, showing signs of affection once he felt safe. While he can be a bit skittish in new situations, he behaved well on walks and showed his loving side. He’ll need a patient adopter who can give him the time to adapt to new environments. Neutering should help with the occasional humping behavior, and with your support, he’ll flourish.
