River's story

　　This adorable baby is River. River is about 4-5 months old and weighs about 38 lbs. Judging by the size of her paws, she is going to be a gentle giant. River has a beautiful black coat with white markings. She has white around her nose, around her neck, down her belly and on her legs and feet. It is hard to tell her exact breed, but we are guessing she has some lab in her because of her webbed feet and possibly some border collie because of her coloring, but whatever she is she is 100% lovable! She and her sister, Raine, were in a rural shelter and were scheduled to be euthanized because they were large breed babies and not getting any interest. FOR found out about them and two volunteers jumped into the car to make the two hour drive to get them. They are in a foster home where they are learning about toys, treats, soft beds and regular meals. River is a little shy, but is very loving and affectionate and loves her people. She loves playing with her sister, Raine, and the two other dogs in her foster home. She loves romping around in a safe, secure, fenced in yard and then she will come inside and snuggle up with you. She is doing great with potty training and has not had any accidents in the house. Her foster mom is home during the day and makes sure that she goes out regularly to go potty. She is crate trained and will go right into her crate and then gets a treat. This baby is so precious and deserves a good, loving home where she will be part of a loving family. She travels well in the car and would love to go on adventures with you. Do you have room in your home and heart for this adorable baby? She would make a great loving, faithful companion!
