Ryker is a very sweet, energetic little guy who loves to play and spend time right next to his humans. His favorite things are tug-of-war, peanut butter, sweet potatoes, doing tricks for treats, and belly rubs. Allllll the belly rubs!

Ryker is very loyal and protective of his favorite people and needs a little extra loving care and slow introductions when it comes to strangers. He can be wary of them, but eventually warms up.

Ryker loves other dogs and cats and wants to play with them. He's respectful of his cat sibling's boundaries and will accept the bops on the nose like a good boy! He is very smart and understands 'sit,' 'down' and 'high five!' He is already crate-trained and does well left alone there with his blanket and toys when his people are away from home. And he is actively working on house training.

Ryker would do best in a home with adults only or older kids that can help him get out his energy, possibly with another dog so he can have a friend to play with. He will love to continue his training and in return, he will be super loyal to his pet parents.

If you are looking for an affectionate and loyal little goofball buddy then Ryker is your boy!
Come meet your new best friend
