He deserves a family who will never let him feel neglected again, a home where he can relax, feel safe, and fully step into the loving companion he is meant to be.<br/><br/>This boy has endured more than he should have, yet he remains affectionate, responsive, and ready to give his heart to someone willing to guide him.<br/><br/>Ryder is not looking for perfect. He is looking for committed.
