Ripley's Story

Ripley — The Life-of-the-Party Velcro Boy (and yes... He Loves Cats!)<br/><br/>If you could invite one dog to a party just to make sure everyone had a good time... it would be Ripley.<br/>This happy, affectionate boy brings joy wherever he goes — equal parts playful companion, gentle observer, and cuddle expert.<br/><br/>And one of Ripley's most special qualities? He is CAT FRIENDLY! We have videos showing Ripley interacting calmly and respectfully with cats and other dogs — making him a rare find for homes looking to add a dog to an existing furry family.<br/><br/>About Ripley:<br/>- 1 year old<br/>- 60 lbs<br/>- Sweet, affectionate Velcro dog who loves his people<br/>- Plays happily with other dogs — then chooses to relax and "observe" the fun<br/>- Goes happily into his crate to unwind and relax<br/>- Eats his meals with enthusiasm but has lovely manners (no begging!)<br/>- Cat friendly — verified and rare! <br/>- Cuddly, smoochy, and incredibly loving<br/><br/>A small bump in Ripley's journey:<br/>Ripley is heartworm positive, but please don't let that deter you.
