About Redneck

Adoption Fee: $50
Rhodesian Ridgeback mix
Sex: Male

Redneck was found running in the middle of the street late at night in a thunder, lighting and rain storm. When the car slowed to not hit, him he sought an entrance to the vehicle. When the driver opened the window to speak to him, Redneck literally tried climbing through the driver window. Several unanswered attempts were made to locate a owner, so he needs a new caring home. Redneck is a male, responsive, intelligent, young and energetic Ridgeback. He is well behaved despite being a big puppy and finding some mischief. He likes to play, companionship, attention and to be loved. He gets along with the 4 other dogs after settling in. He was protective of his food at first; but has greatly relaxed this behavior realizing there is enough for all. He likes treats and will sit and take it soft from the hand. He is used to inside and outside. At first he felt he should sit on the couch; but learned we do not permit it. Occasionally he pushes his rump up against the cushion and sits on the very edge. I think he is bit of a softy; but he likes exploring and running through the woods. He fetches a bit and likes to play rough; but backs off when told to be easy. He is big and can look intimidating with his loud bark, but has a child like demeanor. If you are looking for a loyal companion that needs some genuine affection and you can give him some attention please consider rescuing Redneck. I will be seeking neutering him soon, so he does not creat any litters. Rhodesian Ridgeback Rescue Information: The Rhodesian Ridgeback is a fierce hunter that also makes a loyal family pet.
