Hi, I’m Rick!
I’m a sweet and spunky Lab/Shepherd mix, born on February 2, 2025. I’ll likely grow to be about 30 pounds of clever, cuddly, tail-wagging goodness. My story began with my brave mama, Victoria, who was abandoned while pregnant—but thanks to some kind humans and The Cantu Foundation, I’ve had the chance to grow up safe, loved, and full of puppy potential!
Here’s why I’m your next best friend:
•Smart Cookie: I pick up on things quickly and love a good challenge—training, puzzles, you name it!
•Cuddle Monster: I’m all about hugs, kisses, and cozy snuggle time.
•Playful Pup: Whether I’m romping with my sister Kate or discovering new things, I’m always ready for fun.
•Social Sweetheart: I love people and pups alike and enjoy making new friends.
•Adventurer-in-Training: Exploring new spaces is one of my favorite things to do!
A little more about me:
I’m still figuring out potty training and haven’t had much leash time yet, but I’m trying my best (and I’m pretty smart, so I’ll get there!). I’m not crate trained yet, but I handle short separations okay—I might whimper a little at first, but I settle down quickly. With moderate energy, I’m the perfect mix of playful and chill, and I’m already showing signs of being a thoughtful, intuitive pup.
What’s my dream home?
I’d thrive in an active, loving home where my humans enjoy walks, training sessions, and snuggle time. Whether I’m your one and only or join a pack of puppy or kid siblings, I’m ready to jump right into family life. If you’re looking for a playful, affectionate pup who’s eager to learn and loves you endlessly, I just might be the Rick you’re looking for!
My adoption fee is $550. This fee covers my first year of vaccinations, neuter, and microchip. Do I sound like the dog for you? You can fill out an application to adopt me at http://www.thecantufoundation.org
Let’s write the next chapter of my story—together!
