Meet Richard

Meet Richard!!! The sweet well-mannered little guy was found as a stray in Tennessee. He was found running around the neighborhood trying to play with other dogs. He was brought to the shelter where nobody ever came to claim him. Fetching Hearts Rescue stepped up to help him and bring him up North to find a forever home. Richard loves to play with his humans and also toys. He will play fetch, but most likely will not bring you the ball back LOL!!! Which means you will probably be playing fetch yourself. Lololol!!! Richard loves going on walks with his humans to greet everybody he meets and passes by. He enjoys exploring and seeing all the wonderful things in this world. Richard is the cutest little guy with his ears that stick up like a little bat. When Richard sees another dog, he loves to engage, play in a very nice manner. His play style is awesome as most dogs love playing with him. Richard has an amazing personality that anybody will fall in love with. At night time, he will cuddle up next to you by the fire and watch movies. That's his favorite thing to do he says!!! If you want a loving, sweet and amazing guy, apply for Richard today. Richard will make a fantastic family member added into your family. Meet him today and fall in love!!
