My name is River and I am a 9-month-old puppy: Here is my story. I came into the rescue with my 3 sisters because the family couldn’t take care of all of us. I am the explorer of the group. My foster mom says that if there is a way out of the puppy play area, I will be the one to find it. I am known for being the best kisser and will shower you with affection. I'm a very playful girl who would absolutely love to have a friend to explore and play with. I get along great with everyone I meet. I am looking for a family where someone is home most of the time to continue with my house training, doggy socialization and to give me lots of love and attention. I am very much a puppy and will need a patient owner who will work with her on my basic training. I am potty trained as long as you keep up with taking me out on a regular schedule. I will require patience while she transitions to a new environment and schedule.
While I am an indoor dog, I love the fresh air outside and will need a home with a nice, safe fenced yard to run and play in with my family. I am sorry but I am not suited for apartment/condo living. Please be sure you are ready for the antics of a puppy and a 15+ year commitment when applying.
River is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. Her adoption fee of $350 helps offset the rescue's medical expenses. If you live in the Phoenix metro area and think she could be the right fit for you, please complete an adoption application*: www.helpadogsmile.org/adoption-application/
*Please note that the application is not a commitment to adopt–it is a tool used to help determine if a dog and applicant would make a good match. Applications are forwarded to the foster family for review and follow-up
