Rio

Hey, I'm Rio! I am only 1 year old and in search of a new family.

My previous family moved and left me behind.

A nice lady cared for me until a rescue group could take me in.

No one understands why I was abandoned.

The volunteers tell me I am a well-behaved and mild-mannered boy.

I am sweet with all people and dogs.

I am housebroken and walk perfectly on a leash.

I'd love to show you all the commands I've learned, such as sit, paw, speak, and more.

Car rides are fun, and I will go anywhere with you.

All I want is to love and be loved! I am neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.

My adoption fee of $350 helps offset the cost of medical expenses.

If you live in the Phoenix metro area and think I could be the right fit for you, please complete an adoption application*.

Want to help but can't commit to adoption right now?

Consider fostering me instead! *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.
