Ricky's Story

Hello my name is Ricky! <br/>I am an enthusiastic boy who gets very excited and loves nothing more than leaning in, getting pets and scratches, attention, and being close to me people.<br/>I am a very strong dog and, despite my size, I don't always realize just how big and powerful I am! I can be a bit of a bulldozer when when I get excited, so I need someone who is confident, patient, and willing to set clear boundaries and work on my manners.<br/>Once I get to know and trust you, I really want to work with you. With consistency, structure, and positive guidance, I can make wonderful progress. Underneath all that strength and excitement is a sweet, affectionate dog who just needs someone to help me learn how to channel my enthusiasm and understand my own size.<br/>I am looking for a person who will give me the guidance I need while also appreciating what a goofy but lovable character I am.<br/><br/>My ideal home involves: <br/>Children: No<br/>Other dogs: need some more socializing with other dogs<br/>Cats: would be best as the only animal in the home first <br/>First time dog owner: Experienced dog people<br/>Housing environment: Could be in an apartment or a house with a fully fenced in yard. <br/>Some one home most of the day: He is very good on his own for a normal work day<br/>Activity level : medium to low<br/>House trained: Yes<br/>Birthdate: May 2/22

Hello my name is Ricky!
I am an enthusiastic boy who gets very excited and loves nothing more than leaning in, getting pets and scratches, attention, and being close to me people.
I am a very strong dog and, despite my size, I don't always realize just how big and powerful I am! I can be a bit of a bulldozer when when I get excited, so I need someone who is confident, patient, and willing to set clear boundaries and work on my manners.
Once I get to know and trust you, I really want to work with you. With consistency, structure, and positive guidance, I can make wonderful progress. Underneath all that strength and excitement is a sweet, affectionate dog who just needs someone to help me learn how to channel my enthusiasm and understand my own size.
I am looking for a person who will give me the guidance I need while also appreciating what a goofy but lovable character I am.

My ideal home involves:
Children: No
Other dogs: need some more socializing with other dogs
Cats: would be best a

Upper Credit Humane Society's Adoption Policy
We are thrilled you are considering adoption and our staff are eager to assist you! Our goal is to help you find your best-fit companion and provide the animals in our care with a second chance at a happy home. APPLICATION PROCESS Our main goal is to find the best home possible for every animal in our care. If you are interested in an animal you’ve seen on our website, submit an Adoption Profile on our website (uppercredit.com/adoption-profiles) or in person at the Shelter. This gives us an idea of what you are looking for in an animal. Schedule a time to come to the Shelter to meet the animals and chat with an Adoption Counsellor. The Adoption Counsellor will review your Adoption Profile with you to see if your expectations and lifestyle are a good match with the animal you are interested in adopting. They can also introduce you to other animals that may be a good fit. You will have the opportunity to ask questions and receive guidance about introducing your pet to its new home. We ask that you make an appointment by calling us at 519-833-2287. Some of the animals in our care are in foster homes, so if they are one of the pets you would like to meet, we will coordinate the time with their foster. If, after meeting the animal and completing the application, you and the UCHS staff believe the animal is a good fit for your home, the adoption will be finalized in a separate visit to allow you time to prepare your home. When you return to take your animal home, you will be sent home with an adoption kit, microchip registration information and the medical records for your animal. If you have questions about our adoption process, please contact the shelter at 519-833-2287 or via email at info@uppercredit.com.
