My story

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

Meet Ripkin!

Ripkin entered Riverside Shelter as a stray, and unfortunately, he wasn't claimed. After the shelter reached out for an exit plan for this little guy, we scooped him up to become a Frosted Face on November 12th. Ripkin is around 10 years old and weighs 11.5 lbs.

Ripkin went on a two-week Frosted Fling, and he earned a rave review from his Fling Mom for being so loving and well-behaved.

"Ripkin is an all-around sweetie who loves to give kisses and be by your side. He went to a fair and multiple outdoor cafes and did great! He got tons of pets and loved saying hi to passersby.

Ripkin doesn’t exhibit separation anxiety and responds well to crate training. He is super quiet and doesn't bark! He loves fluffy beds and blankets and curling up in a ball.

Ripkin is kid, dog, and cat friendly and would make a great addition for a family. He loves children and rubs up on them like a cat! Ripken tried to become besties with my cat. He was very sweet and gentle, but my cat didn't care for his attention.

Ripkin loves making new friends, quickly bonds with his person and is very loyal. He will be very excited to see you when you come back then settle after a good petting session. He great on leash and was able to walk at least 3 miles without a blink.

Ripkin is very receptive to training and learned to sit within two days. He is super smart and adaptable. Ripkin is a love bug!"

Ripkin is currently on a second Fling to spend the holidays in a home. To meet this sweet & loving boy, please email placement@frostedfacesfoundation.org.
