About Rhian

Meet Rhian, a sweet 1-year-old female Terrier mix weighing about 13 pounds. She quickly forms strong bonds with her people and loves nothing more than snuggling in your lap or resting in her cozy bed. Rhian enjoys her walks and has a playful side, chasing after squirrels and crows she spots along the way. While she might take some time to warm up to new people and dogs, her true personality shines once she feels comfortable. However, it's important to note that Rhian would prefer a home without children, including grandchildren. She can be possessive over toys and food, so she thrives best with assertive but friendly dogs or as an only pet. She loves to play once she’s comfortable, and squeaky toys are her absolute favorite! This little lady is looking for a quieter home. She's great in the car and sleeps well at night, but she prefers smaller gatherings over large, noisy events. If you think you can provide the right environment and companionship for Rhian, you're in for a loving little shadow who is sure to brighten your days. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
