Meet Rigby

Meet Rigby, your future adventure buddy with the unforgettable smile. 🐾

Rigby is an one year old mini Aussie Shepherd mix weighing in at a perfect 24 pounds, a little guy, but packed with personality. He’s got a snaggle-tooth grin, one brown eye, and one partly blue eye that seems to hold a little extra mischief. It’s impossible not to fall for him.

This charismatic, athletic guy is incredibly smart and very food-motivated (soft, meaty treats, like jerky, are his love language). He already knows “sit” and “leave it,” walks beautifully on a leash without pulling, and is both housebroken and crate trained. He is gentle taking food and does well with nail trims, whether using clippers or a dremel. He rides calmly in a travel kennel and handles being picked up just fine.

Rigby is FAST, a true zoomie champion, and can jump up to three feet from a standstill. He would be a fantastic agility prospect, or an active companion for someone who enjoys training and play. He loves to watch the neighborhood from a window perch (yes, he can climb to find the best view), and he’ll happily zoom around the yard before settling down.

He is generally quiet and not much of a barker. Once he trusts you, he becomes a total cuddle bug, deeply affectionate and a very sound sleeper. He does need a little time to warm up to new people and situations, and he’ll show clear body language when he’s unsure. With patience and some confidence-building, he will truly blossom.

Rigby is an explorer at heart, collector of socks and slippers, occasional paper-towel enthusiast, and potential counter-surfer if temptation is within reach. He wants to chase cats, squirrels, and birds out in their natural habitat, so he might do best in a home without feline roommates and with a secure yard.

Rigby is a happy-go-lucky little athlete with a sensitive side, looking for someone who will appreciate both his speed and sweetness. If you are ready for a smart, charismatic companion who will make you laugh, keep you active, and then curl up beside you at the end of the day, Rigby might just be your guy. 💙
