About River

Meet River! This handsome brindle boy has a big personality and an even bigger heart. He loves to play hard but also enjoys snuggling with his favorite people once playtime winds down. River is currently learning how to be the best house pup he can be. He’s working on potty training, leash walking, and crate training. With your patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, he’s making great strides! He’s searching for a family that will provide him with the time, love, and encouragement he needs to grow. In return, you’ll gain a goofy, playful, and affectionate companion eager to share adventures and fill your lap with cuddles. Although River occasionally shows a funny hop and wobble with his back legs due to a shallow acetabulum in his hips, it doesn't deter him from enjoying life. He’s currently on large breed puppy food and a joint supplement to support his growth. Over time, this may enhance his mobility. If you’re looking for a puppy who is a delightful mix of fun-loving and snuggly, River could be the perfect fit for your family. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
