Ryder

07/30/2026 Meet Ryder!

This handsome harlequin boy is 2 years old and looking for his forever home, and he comes with a whole lot of personality packed into that big frame!

The Basics:
Ryder is a total goofball with a soft, cuddly side, he’s just as happy draped across your lap (yes, all of him) as he is out on an adventure. He’s a great listener and responds well to training, making him a joy to work with. He’s also easy going, crate trained, and walks well on a leash, a great combination for a dog his size!

A True People-Dog:
More than anything, Ryder just wants to be with his people. He loves his humans deeply and thrives on companionship, following you from room to room, leaning in for love, and soaking up every bit of attention he can get. He wants to be part of the family and right in the middle of everything.

Athletic & Active:
Don’t let the couch-potato moments fool you, this guy is seriously athletic and can clear a 4-foot fence without breaking a stride.

Important to Know:
Ryder is great with cats and other small animals, he’s gentle and easy-going with his housemates! He does love a good backyard adventure, and when he’s out playing he’ll happily chase after the neighborhood squirrels and chipmunks, just part of his fun-loving, playful nature.

Quirky Habit We Love:
He’s got a thing for carrying his toys around the house, you’ll often find him wandering from room to room with a favorite toy in his mouth, just keeping himself company.

If you’ve got room on the couch and time to spend with a devoted, goofy giant by your side, Ryder might just be the perfect addition to your family! Interested in meeting Ryder? Reach out today to start your adoption journey!
