My story

Please contact Kendall Majtyka (kendall.majtyka@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.Tell me more...tell me more!RIZZO NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Rizzo    Best Guess for Breed: Lab mix Best Guess for Age: 6.5 years as of June 2025   SEX: Female Approximate Weight: 45 lbs Currently Living at: DC area home All about Rizzo: Rizzo was a tiny 10-pound puppy when she arrived into our care in the spring of 2019, and she was quickly adopted out. She has been in a loving home for six years. Through no fault of her own, she now needs a new home.  They say she loves loves her long sniffy walks, is good on leash, and responds well to cues. In the home, she was free roam - they didn't use a crate. She had her bed and her humans used the cue 'home base' to send her to the bed.  Above all - her previous humans say she loves people! She thrives on being around humans, on interacting with them. She enjoys meeting people of all ages, including kids. The single most important thing, to her, is spending time with her people, and that's what she is looking for in her new home.  If you're looking for a loyal companion who looks at you like you're the sun, moon, and stars - wants nothing more than to be by your side - meet Rizzo! What My Foster Says About Me: Coming soon!   TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and spay/neuter.
