Hi! My name is Ripley and I am a 2-year-old, 66 lb neutered male. I am already housetrained. I am not a huge fan of crates, though I will go in when needed. Fortunately, I can be trusted left home alone uncrated.
I love people, including men, women, and older children! I get very excited when meeting people or when my people come home so I am working on learning a calmer greeting. I seek plenty of affection from my people and love spending time around my family! I would love all the pets you are willing to give me!
I easily make friends with other dogs and would love to have a playful canine sibling in my home to help me run off some energy! I adore plush toys, though for some reason they seem to not last very long around me. I also thoroughly enjoy tougher toys and chews like moose antlers! I have a strong prey drive and cannot go to a home with cats.
I ride well in the car and have been working on my basic commands such as sit, down, leave it, and come! My leash skills are a work in progress and will need continued training to help me learn not to pull. I am an active, vocal, excitable boy who would love to find an adoptive family willing to continue my training! Are you my family?

Echo Dogs fosters dogs in many states east of the Mississippi. Visit our Newcomers to see more of our dogs. Transportation for the adopted dog is available. Remember, we are an all-volunteer foster rescue organization - we DO NOT have a physical shelter to visit. Our minimum adoption donation is $350. All dogs are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations and micro-chipped. Puppies under 6 months old may not be spayed/neutered. This would be the responsibility of the adopter at their own expense. Proof of spay/neuter will be required!
