You are not going to believe this dog!  He draws people to him wherever he goes, sprinkling happiness and joy everywhere.

Rye is a Sharpei mix and weighs about 60 pounds.  His age is a mystery.  He has the teeth of a 2 to 3 year old but early xrays show images of an older dog with arthritis.   We call him a "senior" with a youthful Outlook on life.

Rye was a hot mess when he first came to rescue: starving, a leg with an old break, pneumonia, mange, infection...and Basal Cell Cancer (the best kind of cancer there is, which has been removed).  Xrays show that he has also been shot.  Yet, he loves.  Everyone.  His health issues have been addressed though he's always going to be a bit slow and stiff.  He is a great, loving companion.

Rye is a favorite wherever he goes, loved by people and dogs.  He just has a great temperament.  If you meet him, you'll love him too!!  His top two motivators are LOVE and FOOD!  He's devoted and loyal, happy to cuddle on the couch or play with his toys.

He would like to find a loving family with a fenced in yard so he can explore all the smells!  He loves to follow his nose. Also, you won't be able to stop taking pictures of him and showing them to everyone you know.  He's the most handsome boy ever and you'll love cupping his big head in your hands while you kiss his forehead.  Be warned, you'll have a new favorite passtime.
