Rado

My story

Meet Rado – The Goofy, Cuddly Frenchie Clown You’ve Been Waiting For! 🐾 Healthy, happy, one-year-old neutered male ✅ Name pronounced like ColoRADO (not Ray-do!) ✅ Rado is the perfect mix of playful goofball and easygoing snuggle buddy. He came to us as a thoughtful, polite young man, and has blossomed into a clownish, affectionate, absolutely irresistible companion. This boy LOVES his people. At night, he insists on sleeping as close to his foster mama as physically possible—if you move, he wiggles closer. In the morning, he greets the day with breakfast (Purina Pro Plan Lamb & Rice, 1 cup twice a day) and a quick potty break, then says “good morning” to the world from the yard. Throughout the day, Rado’s schedule includes: Wrestling with his foster brother 🐶 Keeping a watchful eye on the cat 🐱 Snuggling with his humans on the couch 🛋️ Playing fetch & chewing his toys 🦴 Acting as your self-appointed co-pilot on any car ride 🚗 (School drop-off? Friend’s house? Park? Trail? He’s in!) Rado & Kids/Cats/Dogs: Kids: LOVES them—especially the toddler in his foster home. He lights up when he sees her. Dogs: Off-leash, he’s great with other pups. On-leash, he prefers not to go nose-to-nose, but he’s friendly overall. Cats: Curious and a little assertive—he may watch, stalk, or try to chase, but never aggressively. With the right cat and some training, he could make a great feline sibling. Special Skills & Quirks: Will supervise all vacuuming operations (translation: he’s not a fan). Can dismantle a tennis ball with surgical precision. May “liberate” small plush dolls for nibbling. Can hop over baby gates like a tiny Olympian. Fence patrol is serious business—he may bark at dogs next door. He is very protective of his yard. Best to kennel him when you’re out—he settles there better than free roaming. Rado’s Ideal Home: Someone who wants a true companion—he’ll match your energy for playtime and then happily snooze beside you for hours. Another playful dog is a bonus, but he’d also thrive as a solo pup with enough love and enrichment. Best Thing About Rado? He’s the best of both worlds: a fun, active buddy who transforms into a couch-cuddling lovebug. Plus, he’s gorgeous—super soft coat, the cutest forehead wrinkles, and a perfect gentleman during nail trims. If you’re ready for a healthy, hilarious, heart-melting Frenchie to brighten your life, Rado’s your guy. 💛
