Risha - Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Asheville, North Carolina

Risha is a 5-year-old pup who approaches the world with a neutral, wait-and-see attitude. She is a little cautious with the ways of the world, but she can open up with some time and patience.
Due to her uncertainty, she is advised to not go home with any toddlers or younger children as she needs the space to ground herself in a more neutral environment.
She also isn't the biggest fan of other dogs or cats making a home with her as the only pet the best match for her!
Risha is hanging out in a foster home, if you'd like to learn more or meet her, please email adoptions@ashevillehumane.org!

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
