Hi — winding down? Richie here.
Small, spicy, and fully convinced I'm a Great Dane.
My notes say I'm a world-class cuddler, and I'd like that on the record.
I've been holding down the fort in Escondido, hoping someone like you would wander by.
Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.
With a little luck, Thanksgiving could be my first one in a real home — possibly with you, or with someone you send my way.
Thanks for stopping by and giving me a moment — it honestly made my whole day. — Richie

About Richie
Due to no fault of his own, Richie needs a new home. In 2023, Richie and his sibling were found in a cardboard box on a busy, congested street filled with people and cars. The finder contacted TLC K9 Rescue, and without hesitation, we took them under our wings. ❤️ His brother has since been adopted, but poor Richie has been bounced from one home to another. Just imagine being a little 12-pound dog who has spent so much of his young life waiting for someone to commit and love him unconditionally. Richie has been searching for his forever family since he was just 11 months old. Now, a little over two years old, he is still waiting. As his rescuer, that truly breaks my heart. But look at this boy today! Richie was once very shy around people but found his courage through other dogs. Today, he's loved by everyone at the dog park and his groomers. His doggie friends can't wait to run and play with him! ❤️ He loves car rides, playing with his toys, and snuggling up with you for a Netflix night. He's a pro at using the doggie door and knows where to go potty. Most of all, Richie is an amazing, loyal companion who just needs someone willing to give him a chance. With a gentle touch, patience, and a committed family, Richie will blossom into the wonderful little dog he is! Just Imagine the laughter, love, and joy this sweet boy could bring into your life! He's waited long enough. He deserves stability, security, and someone who will never give up on him. Richie loves to play so were looking for a family that has a securely fenced yard where he can safely play. Another playful, friendly dog would be a wonderful bonus to help Richie feel comfortable and have a buddy. Could you be the one to change Richie's life forever? ❤️ Ready to adopt Richie?
