Richard is a resilient and loving boy who recently had his right hind limb amputated, but that hasn’t slowed down his playful spirit one bit! This brave guy is full of energy and shows a huge interest in playing with other dogs — he’s definitely a social butterfly who loves making new furry friends.

Richard is fully potty trained and doing great using the bathroom, so no worries there! He’s also a total sweetheart with all the staff, greeting everyone with confidence and wagging tail — no fear here, just love and friendliness.

While Richard hasn’t met any children yet, he’s a super playful and gentle guy who would likely thrive in an active home that can match his energy and enthusiasm for life.

If you’re looking for a loyal, fun-loving companion who’s ready to share lots of tail wags and playtime, Richard might just be your perfect match!

INTERESTED IN FOSTERING?

This pup is currently located at our Town Lake Animal Center (1156 W. Cesar Chavez, but use 1200 Reserve Road for mapping purposes). We'd love to show them off to you! To learn more about them, head in any day between 12:00PM - 6:00PM. We are open 7 days a week! Go to Building B and ask to speak with a Matchmaker about fostering this pup. You will sit down and discuss all we know about them and, if it's a good fit, get to meet them then! Please budget for a wait time unless you arrive right at opening as we cannot dictate walk-in traffic (wait times tend to be highest in the evenings and on weekends). If this pup ends up not being the best fit, we have so many other pups in need that we can suggest for your household on the spot!
