Ralphie

My story

(DOB 09/27/2019) The only thing bigger than Ralphie's head is his heart!!! If you want a gentle giant and you think wrinkles only make you cuter, then Ralphie is your boy. This sweet love bug wants nothing more than to be around his people. He has the cutest facial expressions to go along with his sweet, silly, loveable personality. He can pull out those big 'ole puppy-dog eyes like nobody's business. He loves other dogs and is happiest when he can be around other dogs. He is still a little shy around strangers and needs a chance to get to know them. He is working hard to come out of that shell, and once he gets to know you, he is very sweet and loving and will snort like a piggy when he's excited to see you! Ralphie likes to snuggle into his dog beds and surround himself with his toys. He is crate and house trained and is learning leash manners. Ralphie has a fenced yard at his foster home, but he does NOT need one at his furever home because he is perfectly happy hanging out inside with his people. While Ralphie is a very calm pup, he will speak his mind when he feels it is necessary! He is very food and treat motivated and knows how to sit. Ralphie hasn't met cats yet, but he is certainly willing to meet them and with his dog saavy personality, he may be the perfect fit with them too. He would do best in a home with older children/teenagers as little kids have a lot of energy for him and he is a bit shy for such young, boisterous personalities. As part of Ralphie’s $300 adoption fee, he will be neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. If you have questions about this sweet little boy, you can email  Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org.  If you wish to adopt Ralphie, you can fill in an online application for him under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website:  www.pawsforlifenc.org. ##2204283##
