River's Story

DOB: 12/3/2025<br/><br/>Meet River — a lovely little stream of happiness wrapped in a black-and-white coat.<br/><br/>She made the journey from the South with her brother Canyon, and while he may be the “crash into life at full speed” type, River prefers a more… graceful approach. Think gentle wiggles, soft little trots, and the occasional burst of zoomies that seem to come out of nowhere, like a surprise splash.<br/><br/>River has a way of quietly stealing the spotlight. One minute she’s observing the world with those bright, curious eyes, and the next she’s right by your side, leaning in like you’ve been best friends forever. She’s got a knack for making people feel special — the kind of pup who chooses you and makes it very clear you’ve been selected.<br/><br/>Her daily routine includes light exploring, thoughtful toy investigation (with the occasional enthusiastic toss for good measure), and perfecting the art of being exactly where you are. She’s also an excellent listener, especially if you happen to be talking while holding snacks.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a little companion who brings a calm, happy energy with just the right dash of mischief, River is ready to flow right into your life and make herself at home.<br/><br/>The Adoption Fee is $450, which includes all age-appropriate vaccines, spay/neuter, and FELV/FIV testing. Microchip transfer is an additional fee.<br/><br/>**For more information regarding ROAR’s adoption policies and procedures, please visit our website at roar-ridgefield.org and select the ‘adopt’ tab on the home page. NOTE: Appointments will take priority, but walk-ins are welcome during open business hours.
