BIO:
Woof, hello! Riri here. Despite my small size, I've got loads of spunk! I love to shower humans with kisses and I am always looking for a nice, warm lap to cuddle in. Here's the deal: I'm quite popular around here. I am dog friendly with dogs of all sizes, I am cat friendly, and I like children, too! Call me the trifecta of perfection. I have a bold personality and I like to think I am the queen around here, so submissive dogs would be best for me. I recently met a kitty and I did so well! Lots of face licks and gentle sniffs. Did I mention I love to play? I am a fan of all toys - bones, ropes, plush toys, you name it! Bonus - I am called a "circus dog" since I can balance on my back two feet. I am happy to entertain myself, but I equally enjoy the companionship of other dogs, too. Walking on a leash has been a breeze and the exercise helps me burn off some energy. As a matter of fact, going for walks makes me SO excited that the sight of my harness gets me dancing. I can jump high like a kangaroo, so a 5-ft. fence (at minimum) is a necessity. When inside, I am a pretty chill girl and you can find me snoozing on the couch. I've got potty training and crate training down, however I am still learning some commands like "sit" and "off." Being the smart girl that I am, training classes should quickly bring me up to speed! Fetching Tails requires adopters of young dogs like me to sign us up for training classes. Are you ready to parade this princess around town? Fill out an application and schedule a visit to come meet me!

XOXO,
Riri

If you'd like to adopt this dog, please get started by filling out a complete application (incomplete submissions cannot be sent.) Please note that while we take time to learn as much as we can about each dog in our care as possible, our bios are written from current observations. Though we do our best to share as much information as possible about each dog we care for, we are unable to make any guarantees on the future health or temperament of your adopted dog. Most dogs in our care come with unknown pre-rescue history, and information pertaining to breed and age are often educated guesses.
