Hi, I’m Rio — and I rescued myself.
I climbed over a fence and into the rescue yard because I knew I was ready for a better life. Now I’m in a foster home, learning all the good stuff and getting ready for my forever family. I’m young, handsome, playful, and full of energy. I love playing ball, and I’m a big fan of water — dipping my paws in or lounging on the pool steps is my kind of vibe. I’m super friendly and have a great personality (or so everyone keeps telling me!). I really love my people and like to sit close and be near them. I’m still working on my leash skills and learning to be comfortable with a harness, but I’m making progress every day thanks to my amazing foster mom.
If you’re active, outdoorsy, and looking for a loyal buddy who’s already proven he's got heart — Rio might just be your guy... and just look at those ears :)
