About Rafi

Meet Rafi! This 11-pound Terrier Mix is a bundle of joy, estimated to be between 1 and 3 years old. With his big eyes, wispy ear hairs, and adorable little white goatee, he truly embodies the essence of scruffiness. Rafi is not just about looks. His personality shines bright. He’s happy, social, and affectionate, making friends wherever he goes. He gets along well with other dogs and adores kids, ready to engage everyone in playful antics. Toys are his passion, and he loves to dig up every missing toy in his foster home. Energetic and playful, Rafi enjoys running in a fenced yard and walks nicely on a leash. While he’s game for a game of fetch, he’s also independent enough to entertain himself. Once playtime wraps up, this little cuddle bug loves to snuggle up close, enjoying all the affection he can get. And yes, sleeping with his human is non-negotiable! Rafi is house-trained when on a consistent schedule. He’s learning to feel comfortable in a crate, though it may take some positive reinforcement to ease his anxiety.
