DESCRIPTION
young boy ISO happily ever after! RIVER NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!!

Approximate Weight: 32 lbs as of 6/22/26; he is still growing!
Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen him with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters!
Currently Living at: South Carolina shelter; needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to get up here.
River is Looking For: His forever home! This cutie is eagerly looking forward to having his own humans for sniffy walks (that hound nose!!) and all the adventures they can dream up - gotta burn all that awesome young-dog energy! And dog school so he can show how super smart he is. And then pets and cuddles and belly scritches at the end of a fun day together. And he'll want quality kibble and a cushy dog bed. Most of all, though, he wants to know he's safe and loved. In exchange he promises all the adoring gazes and happy tail wags he's storing up, and loyal companionship for all his days. What do you say? Is this sweet hound pup the one you see by your side?
What My Foster Says About Me: We will update this once he has spent time in foster care.
