Meet Raphael
Raphael, a sweet dog who has made remarkable progress with his trainer, is now ready to find his forever home. He loves all treats and loves to play fetch. When he first arrived, he had been through so much and struggled to trust others, so he couldn’t be around dogs. However, he is now happy to meet people and could even go on pack walks with other dogs. Despite his rough start, Raphael is a good boy. Estimated age: 8 years If you are interested in Raphael please fill out an adoption application at: https://www.dogsaredeservingrescue.com/adopt
