Story
Meet River!!
River and Lake are sisters. They were found at the local shelter in Mississippi. They were found running near the highway together. Their was nobody else around like siblings or mom/dad.
Both are playful and have moderate energy. They are still puppies so more energetic than an adult. River is shy when first meeting, but warms up, once she knows she is safe. They have both been around several dogs and a cat and get along with everyone!!!
Leash training is in the works. They would prefer harnesses for leash walking. They love Milkbones, marabones and chicken jerky treats. They both love their toys as well!!!
They have not been around any young children that I am aware of. They have been around kids 10 years of age and up. Since they are still young girls, training would benefit them to learn their basic commands and also gain a relationship with them family. They don't have to stay together. Bother girls love playing with their dog friends, so a family who wants another dog would be prime for these cuties. They love romping in their fenced yard!!!!
Look into the eyes of River and see the love, and amazing heart she has. She has so much love and cannot wait to share it with her forever family!!!
