My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Ricky, a happy, friendly guy who would love to be your new best friend! He’s an outgoing young dog who stays close and likes attention from people. He enjoys pets and hanging out with you. He was good being handled all over and shows no signs of guarding food. Ricky was a little pushy at first when meeting a male cattle dog but then played in a friendly manner. He pulls moderately on leash, so he could use some continued leash and obedience training. Ready to add some fun and laughter to your home? Ricky’s the dog for that and more! Kids 12 and up recommended.
