My story

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

The Best is Yet to Come! My name is Richard. I’m a friendly and affectionate boy who likes to greet you at the door with a wagging tail. I'm so eager to be by your side as we take a neighborhood stroll together. I’m told I’m a very handsome pup, too, with my shiny black coat and engaging smile. I’m an energetic two-year-old who is housetrained, and I have lived with children. I'm happy to share social time and weekend adventures with you and would also enjoy learning more in order to reach my full potential. With some guidance and a loving home, there is no limit to what I can do. I have a lot of joy, laughter and love to share with you. Come visit me today and see if we are meant for each other!
