Here's what Rikka's friends at Louie's Legacy Animal Rescue think of her:
Rikka is an adorable seven-month-old, 50 pound puppy. She ended up at one of our partner shelters, and we can't figure out why; she's the best girl! She's great in her crate while her foster mom is away and hasn't had an accident in the house. Rikka is a constant wiggle, never sitting still due to her unlimited amount of happiness. Rikka is a ridiculously dog friendly, loving to wrestle and play with the other dogs in her foster home. She's also very cat friendly, loving to give them kisses. Rikka would be a fantastic family dog, but she is still a puppy, so she's continuing to work on her manners.

Rusty Roo is a very affectionate boy. He and his sibling, Roman Romeo, were brought to our Lodge by a Good Samaritan due to their human mom passing away from cancer. Her final wishes were to place them together in a new home as they depend on each other. She did not want them to lose each other in addition to losing her. Rusty spends his days with his big brother hanging out in Camp Bark DayCamp and is great with all dogs large and small and all people that he meets.
