Riot's Story
Riot A187707<br/>48 lb. neutered male, approx 3 years old <br/><br/>-This sweet boy may need a little time to feel comfortable, but once he starts to trust you, you get to see his playful side come shining through. He was a little nervous in the yard at first and kept his distance, but a squeaky toy caught his attention and brought him running over. After a few gentle pets, he started moving closer on his own.<br/><br/>-Once we went somewhere quieter, he slowly made his way over to me. A toy really helped him come out of his shell, and before long he was pouncing on it and then climbing right into my lap! He was still a little unsure about being pet, but he was clearly trying and wanted to be close.<br/><br/>-And then the toys really brought out his personality. He loved chasing them, picking them up, shaking them around and bringing them right back to me so I could throw them again. He already knows how fun a game of fetch can be!<br/><br/>-He walks well with minimal pulling and seems to be a good potty holder. Like any dog entering a new home, he'll need time to adjust to new surroundings and routines. He's looking for someone patient and gentle who will let him go at his own pace and give him the time he needs to build confidence. Once he feels safe, I think this sweet boy is going to be a really fun and affectionate companion. <br/><br/>-Seems non reactive to dogs nearby and may do well living with a fur sibling after slow and proper intros <br/><br/>Unknown behavior with dogs/cats/kids<br/><br/>*Meet all of our adoptable pets on our website friendsofdacc.org/adopt <br/><br/>*Please keep in mind that the shelter can be a very stressful environment. <br/><br/>*Studies show that a minimum of 3 days decompression drastically lower stress hormones and allow the dog to show more personality after they have settled in. <br/><br/>*There is a suggested donation of $100 for our dogs, payable by cash, check or through paypal at the time of the adoption. <br/><br/>*To meet them please go to front door and a DACC staff member will assist you with adoption or fostering. <br/><br/>**And when coming to meet one of our dogs, please bring all the humans with you, but leave any current dogs at home. Staff will go over how to slowly and properly introduce them after a decompression period.** <br/><br/>*The shelter is open 7 days a week from 10:30-5:30, except for Wednesday when we open at 11:30<br/><br/>**We ask that if you're looking to adopt, you arrive before 5:00 to be able to have enough time to meet the dog. <br/><br/>**1431 E Ferry St. Detroit
