My name is Ritchie and I'm looking for a home! After wandering the streets, I was picked up by the shelter and I spent some time there before NorCal Sheltie Rescue discovered me. I'm young but I don't know my birthday (the shelter says I'm 2 years old). I'm a big boy, 54 pounds, and I think I'm a Sheltie, with beautiful, blended colors. I'm neutered, fully vaccinated, and microchipped. When I was homeless, I became a little defensive around other dogs. Foster mom says I need lots of training to build my confidence around them and not overreact. Another fault of mine, she says, is that I like to chase cats and critters. I seem to be very interested in all the new distractions and I also need help in learning to walk politely on leash. My best quality, though, is that I love people and I'm very free with my affection. I can't wait to find my permanent home. Ideally, it would be a home with a large fenced yard, no other pets, no young children (I might want to chase them), and people who are willing to train me. I promise to give back lots of love in return. If you'd like to adopt me, please contact my rescuers at [email protected] for more information. Thank you for reading my story. Please consider me and recognize how much potential I have for becoming a really great dog! Warmly, Ritchie [email protected]
