Looks like we have a water dog!  Ricky swam around for several minutes, barking and splashing with a front paw every so often.  I think he was chasing the small fish that live in the pond.  Then it was time for more "laps" around the house - he dried off very quickly!

Ricky came into foster care on March 29, 2008.  He is an intact 5 year old purebred Samoyed male.  Arrangements will be made for him to be neutered and microchipped.  We are awaiting copies of his veterinary records so that we may determine which, if any, vaccinations need to be updated.  His left ear is flopped over and we were told by his owner that this is the result of an abscess in his ear that was drained twice.

He is a tall, lanky boy.  He currently weighs approximately 50lbs. and could stand to put on a few more.  He is not greatly motivated by food but doesn't appear to be a picky eater.

Ricky is a strong-willed boy that needs an experienced owner that will allow him to be in the home (preferably with access to the outdoors) when left alone.

Ricky has spent the first 5 years of his life as an only dog in his former home and is making adjustments to living amongst other dogs.  We hope that he will be ready to go to his forever home in the next month or two. 

If you are interested in adopting Ricky, please complete an adoption application.

*Please note that all of our rescue dogs are spayed/neutered and microchipped prior to being placed in their new homes*
