Rizzo

Rizzo — The Tough-Girl-With-a-Heart-of-Gold Boxer<br/><br/>Meet Rizzo, about 3-year-old Boxer beauty who’s got that perfect mix of sass, sweetness, and soul. Like her namesake from Grease, she may look tough on the outside—but under that cool-girl charm is a total softie who just wants to love and be loved.<br/><br/>After coming up from Alabama (where snow was just a rumor), Rizzo’s learned to embrace her new life up north. Once she realized the white stuff was safe, she was all in—zoomies, snow angels, the works.<br/><br/>She’s completely house trained, sleeps like a rock, and can be left loose in the house without worry. Crates? Not her scene—she’s more of a “curl-up-on-the-couch-and-snuggle” kind of gal.<br/><br/>Rizzo’s got a big personality and loves being part of the action. She adores people (especially her foster’s son, her favorite T-Bird in the world) and thrives on attention and affection. She’d be happiest in a home where she can be someone’s leading lady—whether that’s as an only dog or with playmates who match her energy.<br/><br/>She’s social, playful, and curious—fine with kids 10 and up, respectful at mealtime, and easily redirected with a simple “no begging.” Her favorite toys are pink stuffies, and the occasional water bottle (hey, Rizzo’s gotta recycle in style).<br/><br/>Rizzo’s motto?<br/><br/>“There are worse things I could do… than fall head-over-paws for you.” <br/><br/>So, if you’re ready to meet your match made in musical history—a confident, loving, loyal best friend with star power to spare—Rizzo’s your girl.<br/><br/>Interested in adopting this dog?
