My story

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

Riggs has been the easiest, sweetest boy to foster. We were prepared to give him lots of time and space when he came home, but he was immediately happy and eager to love on us and play with us. We’re still early days in our fostering adventure with Riggs, but he’s shown us what a lovable, goofy, cuddly love bug he is! The way he leans in to you for love will melt your heart. He must have had a person in the past because he appears to be housebroken and knows sit and shake, which he will do unbidden if he sees you with a food bowl! It’s pretty stinking cute.

Riggs is an active boy and loves his walks. He would be a great running or hiking buddy! But he’s also a great lazy boy, and happy to sleep in late. I just can’t imagine a scenario that Riggs wouldn’t thrive in. He’s very interested in other dogs but I think he can get overwhelmed with lots of dogs around, but he’s been very curious and gentle with our resident dog.

As we’re getting Riggs integrated, he is currently in a separate room away from our resident animals. He has NO issues with being left alone in his room. He finds a cozy place and snoozes, and happily greets us with tail wags when we come in. He’s a very good boy.

We can’t wait for Riggs to find his new people. He deserves all the love, cuddles, and blankets in the world. In exchange, he’ll give you all the love, gentle kisses, and full body hugs you can handle.
