About Ricco

Ricco is a gentle and sensitive dog who enjoys interacting with other dogs. He shows friendly but shy play in the yard, and greets calmly at his kennel. While he's easy to leash, outside he tends to be timid, often tucking his tail and feeling unsure in new situations. Back in his kennel, Ricco relaxes and becomes more expressive, wiggling happily. He sometimes sits close to his human for comfort and welcomes gentle pets when he feels safe. With patience and positive experiences, Ricco has the potential to come out of his shell and reveal his sweet personality. Give him the chance he deserves. Ready to meet your new best friend?
