Hey there, the name’s Riptide🌊 You’ve probably noticed how incredibly handsome I am, and I’m here to confirm I’m also just as lovable! I’m an affectionate and smart young man who is eager to please and I just love my humans. I’m working on my house training and doing really well having quiet time or naps in my crate. I sleep through the night, and I’m sure happy to see you in the morning! I love being outside, going for walks or car rides, meeting other doggos and kids too. So far I like everyone I’ve met and we have gotten along great. Every chance I get, I try go visit the foster kittens here. They’re sure silly little critters and I think they like me. I mean ….why wouldn’t they? I’m a confident guy and good to live on my own or with another dog friend. I like to chase and play with the resident dog here. I think I’m his favourite! 😉 He even shares his toys with me! I like to have fun and keep you laughing, but if you bend down to pet me, I will have lots of kisses to share, cuz I just loooooooovee my humans. I’m a loyal companion and would love to go on any adventure you’ll take me on. One thing about me, I’m not sure where my mom went when I was 4 weeks old, and I ended up all alone. The nice people at SCARS picked me up and brought me in out of the cold and life has been great ever since. I didn’t get a chance to learn all the things my mom had planned to teach me, but the good news is, I’m very food motivated and these big floppy adorable ears work as excellent listeners when treats are involved. I’m ready and waiting for my new family. If I sound like a good fit, let’s arrange to meet! -XO Riptide 🐾
