About Rio
Meet tiny tyke Rio! This little guy is a little comical with his fancy haircut and prancing gait, he brings plenty of personality wherever he goes. He’s loving having furry friends to play with and has been a confident explorer, venturing out into the yard without a hint of fear or hesitation. He quickly mastered the steps, and you’ll often find him perched regally on one, watching the antics of his furry friends like he’s overseeing the whole operation.
Rio loves making new friends, both furry and human, and he’s always happy to soak up some attention. When he’s ready for a little downtime, he’ll happily settle into your lap for a good snuggle. With his tiny size, playful antics, and adorable prancing ways, Rio is sure to bring plenty of laughs, love, and cuddles to his forever home!
Rio is estimated to be 13 weeks old and 7 lbs. Since we don’t know the dog’s actual genetics, this is just a guess on breed and size when grown. All dogs have had a vet examination, are up to date on all vaccinations, and have been given dewormer and heartworm prevention. Dogs over 7 months have been heartworm tested.
If you are interested in meeting this dog please complete the adoption application on our website at https://safehandsrescue.org/adoption-process/ and then we can contact you about setting up a meeting.
