About Rigatoni

Meet Rigatoni, an 11-week-old Chihuahua mix who brings sweetness to a whole new level. Coming from a lively home filled with dogs, he’s discovered the joys of puppy life: romping around with his siblings and napping when he’s worn out. This playful little guy excels at puppy wrestling and has a notable passion for toys. Rigatoni adores humans, especially when they spoil him with neck scritches, belly rubs, and tasty puppy kibble. Rigatoni is still in his puppy phase and will thrive in a home that provides a consistent routine for potty training, leash training, and basic commands. He enjoys the company of other dogs but could also be happy as the only pup in the house. He’s up to date on his first round of vaccines, dewormed, and will be neutered and microchipped when he’s old enough, all included in the adoption fee of $250. If you’re ready for a playful companion who will shower you with love, Rigatoni just might be your perfect match! Give him a chance, and he’ll fill your days with puppy kisses.
