Incoming hugs and kisses! That’s how I greet new folks. I jump on you for hugs and am instantly your new BFF! My name is Ryder and I’m 6-years-old and weigh 83 pounds.

I’m a bouncy boy! I get excited and hop, I can’t help it. I need a forever home filled with folks who can take my bounciness and be OK with it. I also pull very hard on the leash and need someone patient and consistent to teach me good leash manners.

In case you haven’t picked up on this already, I LOVE people! TGRR thinks I’m a bit much to be in a home with small children because I’d knock them over.

I get in and out of the car easily and ride like a champ.

I haven’t been around other dogs much so I’m very unsure around them. I tend to bark at them (which many dogs find quite annoying) cause it’s just so darn exciting to see them!  I think I will be perfectly happy being the center of your attention and being an only dog for now.

I have been boarded at a Pet Spa during my time with TGRR, so I haven’t been able to show everyone how I’ll be in a home with a good routine. Everyone at the Pet Spa loves me because they’re all my BFF’s, ya know? Before I came to TGRR, I lived with 11 cats! Needless to say, I get along fine with cats!

So stand back and get ready for a hug! Ryder is coming at cha!
