Meet Rico💝
Rico gave birth to puppies under a wall In January 2021, and was brought to the Gimje Shelter. Rico and her puppies were eventually rescued by Adogs. All of her puppies went to the foster or adopter homes, but Rico used to attack her own hind leg and couldn’t stay in the foster home for long. A long period has passed since she returned to the Adogs Center. She is currently staying at a new foster home.
* Towards People: Initially is wary of people but gets used to them with time. You can get close to her even faster with treats! Loves being hugged by people she likes and makes eye contact, showing affection with head bumps.
*Towards Dogs: Is not the type to approach first. Wags her tail at friends she’s familiar with, but doesn’t approach first or get excited. Gets along with the other dogs, and doesn’t get jealous or compete with other dogs for affection.
* Toward Cats: Does not care about cats.
* Separation Anxiety: Has a habit of biting her own hind leg when she is alone for over four hours. She stops if you call her name.
* Potty Training: Can potty both indoors and outdoors. Doesn’t mark at home. Wags her tail if she potties outside because she prefers it.
* Hygiene: Is good with being brushed. Sometimes, she dislikes being brushed on her legs.
* Walks: Doesn’t like walks yet, so volunteers are letting her go on walks in the direction she wants to go to. If you let go of the leash and walk forward, she comes closer a bit and then sits down.
* Carsickness: None. However, she gets nervous if she can’t see her caretaker.
💌Other Features💌
* Can follow the command of "Sit,” “wait,” and “eat.”
* Gets along with people, dogs, and cats. Feels more calm when she’s with other calm dogs rather than being alone. Would be good as a second dog in a family.
* Is quite fearful but adjusts quickly if she feels like she’s in a safe place.
* She has a tendency to bite her own hind leg, but hasn’t shown any signs of this behavior during the few days she’s been at her foster home.
