Rico has had a really sad go of things lately. His Mama was really sick so she sent him to boarding while she went into the hospital to try to get better. Unfortunately, his Mama didn't make it and Rico was stuck without knowing what happened, where Mama was or if she would ever come and get him. When the family heard what happened, they didn't want to take care of Rico so they surrendered him to the Police who brought him to the Shelter of Oz Pound. He's 9 years old, he keeps his kennel mostly clean (for a while he had a pretty upset tummy, understandably). He's doing much better now though. He walks really great on the leash and loves carrying a toy with him on his walks. He seems dog friendly but he does hate cats! he is about 73 lbs.
