Meet Rafa, a charming little guy who's ready to find his forever home! At around 9 weeks old, this brave pup has survived quite the journey. Abandoned by his mother as a stray, he was rescued along with his siblings by a caring couple in Texas. Now he’s healthy, safe, and full of that delightful puppy charm—a bit more reserved than some of his bolder siblings, but his sweetness and curiosity shine through. Rafa's family tree is an intriguing blend, likely featuring Shepherd, Great Pyrenees, and Cattle Dog. He’s expected to grow into a sturdy medium-sized boy, possibly weighing between 45 to 65 lbs fully grown. Though he’s just a puppy, he’ll thrive with patient training and socialization to build his confidence. Rafa gets along well with other dogs, which makes him a potential perfect fit for a loving family. He'll arrive in Virginia on September 18th, so now is the perfect time to prepare for this adorable soul to join your life. Don't wait—submit your application today to welcome Rafa into your heart!
