Rigby - Australian Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Hoffman Estates, Illinois

Hi, I'm Rigby! I'm a one year old pup with a big personality, an even bigger heart, and absolutely no idea how anyone could resist my happy face! My sister Igby and I were found as strays, and sadly, no one ever came looking for us. Somehow, we ended up without a family—but that hasn't stopped me from believing that people are pretty wonderful. I'm sweet, social, loving, and always ready to make a new friend. If you're offering attention, affection, or an adventure, I'm IN! I love being around people and have that happy, easygoing personality that makes you smile without even realizing it. And I'm a social guy when it comes to other dogs, too! I do great with dogs and would love having a canine buddy to hang out with. Kids? Absolutely! I'm ready to be part of the family fun, whether that means playing in the yard, going for walks, or simply hanging out beside my favorite people.I've spent enough time wondering where I belong...now I'm ready for my forever!
