Meet Rick! Rick was found as a stray and brought to GAH around three weeks ago. He’s a super friendly dude once you get to know him!! He plays very well with other dogs, but has not been around cats. With humans he’s shy at first but once he gets use to you it’s hard to unglue him from your side! He’s supper cuddly and loves to nap on the couch with you and other dogs. He has been learning new tricks and is listening very well to commands and recalls! He’s potty trained and is on his way to getting completely crate trained!

If you are interested in more information on Rick, please give us a call and ask for Megan as she is currently his foster mom and he is not a direct adoption from Grace. 🐾♥️🐾
