After months of watching everyone else get chosen, why would he believe we were there for him?<br/><br/>But we were.<br/><br/>The moment Rickey walked into his foster home, his comeback began. His tail started wagging... and it hasn't stopped since. The serious expression melted away, revealing the sweetest, happiest, most affectionate boy you could hope to meet. He loves to snuggle, has wonderful house manners, and approaches life with a quiet, gentle confidence that makes everyone fall in love with him.<br/><br/>Rickey has done wonderfully with kids, cats, and other dogs, making him an easy addition to almost any family.<br/><br/>His name couldn't be more fitting. Named after baseball legend Rickey Henderson—the greatest leadoff hitter and stolen base king of all time—our Rickey has a talent of his own. He may not steal bases, but he steals hearts everywhere he goes.<br/><br/>Rickey is a perfect ambassador for The Comeback Pack. He reminds us exactly why second chances matter. We said yes when he had nowhere else to go. Now we're looking for the family who will say yes to him forever.<br/><br/>Rickey has made his comeback. Now he's ready to come home.
