Ryder-

Ryder is an active, fun- loving boy. He just wants to run around and get his bum scratches!

He is a shepherd mix pup currently 40-45lbs. Estimated to be below 60lbs full grown.

From Ryder’s Foster: Ryder is a shepherd mix pup estimated to weigh about 50lbs full grown. He knows sit, lay and shake commands! He’s so smart and a big cuddler! He is timid of loud sounds and gets a little nervous when we go outside. But he does spend lots of time running around with me in the backyard.

He’s getting so comfortable with the crate and chooses at times to go in there to play with his toy or eat a treat or sleep. He doesn’t bark or show any aggression when he sees my cat!

Currently in foster in Sacramento, CA.

$350 adoption donation includes: Age appropriate Vaccinations, Microchip w/ free lifetime registry, Dewormed/Flea Tick treated, and spay/neuter

Ideal home will:

Have the time to commit to all things puppy! Please note puppies do not do well left alone long hours and need to be let out every 2-3 hours for potty. Long work schedule where the puppy would be left alone for 7+ hours can be difficult on most puppies and young dogs.

Solid plans for puppy socialization, positive exposure and continued training + relationship building -- commitment not just to puppyhood but to a lifetime of love, care, companionship and vetting. HFP advocates for Positive Reinforcement only for young puppies and training that focuses less on "obedience" and more on confidence building, relationship building and consent training.

Preference to homes w/ friendly & well-trained dog role models (preference, NOT required)

Preference to homes w/ yards (preferred, NOT required) Why? Puppies cannot go in public until they are 4 month old and complete their puppy shot series. Having a yard during this time greatly helps with play, potty training, and providing an outlet for your puppy to get outside. There are ways to work around this if you do live in an apartment setting but it takes some extra work and planning!

Interested in adopting?
1. Please complete our online form at heartsforpawsrescue.com/adoption-application
2. We will respond in 1-3 days for a call!
3. If it sounds like a potential match for you and the dog of interest, we will promptly set up a meet and greet at the foster home

Please note we are a foster-based rescue meaning our dogs are in individual foster homes throughout sac and the bay. For this reason we may only be able to schedule meets for one dog at a time (or litter). The average timeline between app submission and a meet and greet is 3-5 days. Please only submit an application for a specific dog if you are ready to adopt that animal within a week's time.
