Ryker's Story

Meet Ryker!<br/><br/>We&#39;e known Ryker since he arrived at the local shelter in Spring 2024. We brought him along with us when we separated from the partnered shelter the following Fall because we couldn&#39;t imagine leaving such a special boy behind.<br/><br/>Ryker came into the shelter just hardly out of puppyhood, and he had a really hard time growing up in the small, loud kennels with never enough help for regular enrichment. He had so much pent-up energy and just didn&#39;t know what to do with it all, which unfortunately led to him being &#34;at-risk&#34; for euthanasia when the shelter ran out of space for incoming dogs.<br/><br/>Luckily, Ryker&#39;s current foster came along and literally saved his life. He finally had the chance to decompress and has learned so much while in foster care! Ryker&#39;s foster describes him as &#34;a chill guy who just wants to chill on the couch with you.&#34; But Ryker&#39;s the best of both worlds, as he LOVES some rough&#39;n&#39;rowdy play when the time comes!<br/><br/>Ryker has also been working with a trainer to unlearn some of his bad puppy manners that developed from a lack of early socialization. With consistency, he has shown a real eagerness to learn and please his human friends. All he needs now is a forever parent to help him keep that wonderful momentum going!<br/><br/>The best part? Ryker is crate trained, leash trained, dog friendly with dogs that can match or appreciate his energy, and LOVES to be the center of attention.<br/><br/>If Ryker sounds like the right match for you, we would LOVE to introduce you to this very special boy!

Ryker's foster describes him as "a chill guy who just wants to chill on the couch with you." But Ryker's the best of both worlds, as he LOVES some rough'n'rowdy play when the time comes!
