I can be met in my home in Stamford, CT by appointment.

Rigatoni is a one-year-old medium sized dog (around 40lbs) that is a mix of 20 different breeds. He loves to cuddle and once he knows he can trust you, he absolutely melts. He is very smart and is a fast learner that does well on the leash.

He will thrive in a home with someone who is patient, understanding, and around often enough to help him build confidence and meet his high exercise needs. He should be in a household that is very calm, that can give him regular physical activity and mental enrichment. He would do well with people who can provide gentle guidance, avoid overwhelming him, and help him continue growing out of his fear-based reactions. A calm, structured environment with plenty of love, treats, and reassurance, will help Rigatoni become the confident, happy dog he's meant to be.

Rigatoni's personality comes out even more when he is around other dogs and it helps ease his anxiety, however, he would do best in a single pet household, he prefers to be the only love of his owners life when home.
