Rico's Story

This very handsome boy is Rico! Rico is an approximately 4-year-old male Shepherd/Boxer mix and weighs around 50 lbs. He was rescued from a local shelter at his final hour there. This kid needs to be in this world! Rico is friendly, affectionate, loves people of all ages and sizes. He would be an awesome family dog or a great companion for an individual! Plays well with most other dogs but needs to meet all dogs in household prior to adoption. He would be an ideal playmate for another playful dog! Rico loves to run and play outside so he needs a securely fenced back yard. He is good on a leash and does well in a crate at events. He is not crated at his foster home. Will need assistance with house-training but he is very smart and should catch on fast! Rico is neutered, current on vaccines, and microchipped. His adoption fee is $225. If you would like to adopt Rico and make him a part of your family, please apply at FYDRadopt.com.

Forever Yours Dog Rescue's Adoption Policy

Every dog that is rescued by Forever Yours is checked by a veterinarian, vaccinated, spay/neutered, dewormed, heartworm/ehrlichia tested and treated if needed, and microchipped. We also treat any other illnesses or issues that the dog may have on intake. We require an adoption application (FYDRadopt.com), but we do not require that you give us your first born or the deed to your house to adopt from us. Our adoption fee is $225.00. If available, you will get an opportunity to talk to your chosen pet's foster family when you meet your potential new family member. This will enable you to ask any questions and learn all about your pet. Forever Yours Dog Rescue does not have a facility, all of our wonderful rescues are in foster homes with families that take care of them and love them until their forever homes come along. We are currently not holding adoption events and doing all adoptions through an online application and then setting up individual meetings for potential adopters. Therefore to meet a dog, we ask that you fill out an application so we can see if a good fit first. The application is in no way an obligation for you to adopt.
