About Ricky Sweet and Quiet

Ricky Sweet and Quiet is a 9-10 month old Panda German Shepherd and Siberian Husky mix, weighing about 50 pounds and still growing. His unique Panda Shepherd markings draw you in, but it’s his gentle and sweet nature that truly makes him stand out. Ricky is fully vetted, neutered, heartworm negative, and on effective heartworm and flea prevention. He’s currently being fostered in Houston, TX, but can travel to many states and even Canada for the right home. His journey hasn’t been easy, starting from a rough life on the streets with his sister. After a shelter stay, he was rescued just in time and now enjoys life with his buddy, Luc. Together, they run and splash around on the farm, showing just how playful and joyful he can be. Although his breed may imply a strong personality, Ricky is notably quiet and hardly ever barks. He interacts beautifully with farm animals and has no prey drive, making him a perfect fit for families with other pets, including dogs, cats, and kids. He might be shy at first, but needs just a little time to warm up. Once settled, he reveals his loving and submissive disposition—just a gentle soul longing for affection. If you’re looking for a calm, playful, and loving companion who thrives in a family environment, Ricky could be the ideal addition to your home. His adoption fee includes full vetting, a microchip, and transport costs, ensuring he’s ready for his forever home.
