Rick - Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Bethel, Connecticut

This adorable pup is Rick. He is 6-months-old and weighs 27 lb. We really have no idea his full breed mix but he is 100% cute! We expect Rick will be about 40 lb full grown. Rick is super sweet and snuggly. He loves to be with people and just wants to be someone's new BFF. Rick is good with other dogs but he is submissive and could easily be bullied by a pushy dog. We expect Rick will be fine with children of all ages because he is such a sweetheart. And it's no surprise that Rick is good with cats! This pup is ready to soak up whatever love you have to give! He is going to make a wonderful pet. Rick is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and healthy. His adoption fee is $440. If you would like to meet/adopt Rick, please complete our online application at https://daws.org/daws-forms or stop by our shelter. We are open 10 AM to 4 PM seven days a week. The DAWS shelter address is 147 Grassy Plain St. Bethel. Email daws@daws.org with questions or if you wish to schedule an after-hours appointment. Rick can't wait to meet you!
