Rico is an absolute little heart-stealer With his soft, velvety puppy fur and gentle, snuggly nature, he's happiest curled up close once he's all tuckered out from playtime.

This sweet boy feels most comfortable with a canine buddy by his side. While it's not a must, having another dog around really helps Rico feel safe-especially when he's in his kennel and missing his people. A furry friend to cuddle with makes all the difference for him. He even prefers enjoying his meals in his cozy kennel space.

Rico loves the simple joys in life-playing fetch, carrying around sticks like prized treasures, and soaking up every bit of attention he can get. He's wonderfully calm in the car, making him a perfect little travel companion. Smart and eager to please, Rico already knows how to sit and is proudly working on learning "shake." (And yes-treats definitely help! )

But more than anything, Rico has the sweetest, most loving personality. He truly adores everyone he meets and is ready to share that love with a forever family.

Could that be you?
