Rafiki's Story

Rafiki has quickly become a POOCH youth favorite. This young man is playful, snuggly, and oh so silly. At approximately 2 years old, Rafiki isn’t necessarily a puppy anymore, but he has that puppy squishiness that everyone loves. <br/><br/>Rafiki LOVES to play in the pool, and include dog friends into his pool games. He does best with slow introductions to other dogs, as he can be a bit too exuberant at times. That said, he is GREAT with all sorts of play styles, just needs the occasional reminder to slow down, as he wants all the fun all the time. <br/><br/>Anything can be accomplished with cheese in Rafiki’s mind. He is working hard on his loose leash walking, and learning the obstacles of the training center. His basic tricks are doing well, with both verbal and nonverbal cues, and his confidence around the obstacle course highlights the trust he has in his handlers. <br/><br/>Due to his focus on some of the cats on MacLaren campus, it is likely that he would do best in a household without feline friends. Any dogs in the home will need to do a meet and greet before adoption. <br/><br/>If you’re looking for a unique dog to bring many smiles and laughs to your day, Rafiki would love to be the one to make that happen. <br/><br/>Learn more about Rafiki at pooch.org/rafiki
