About Rhys

Rhys is a charming 4-year-old Cocker Spaniel who’s feeling a bit overwhelmed in his city condo. His family loves him dearly but recognizes that the noise and distractions of urban living have made him reactive. When he visits friends in quieter, rural areas, he shows a much more relaxed side, highlighting his need for a peaceful environment. This sweet boy is a joy at home, enjoying cozy moments on the sofa and basking in the sun. Rhys is house trained and crate trained, making him a great companion for someone looking for a well-behaved pup. He thrives in doggie daycare, playing well with others, though he isn’t keen on sharing space with cats. Rhys walks well on a leash, although he can be reactive when on walks. His current family believes that he will truly flourish in a quieter home where he can feel safe and comfortable. With his outgoing personality and affection for his people, Rhys is ready to find a new family that understands his needs. Click apply to start the adoption process.
