Meet Ralphie

Welcome CCHDR’s newest dork-a-saurus, Ralphie. He’s your classic stock dog who probably got kicked to the curb for goofing off. Despite his male, juvenile ways he’s raw material destined for greatness. This Border Collie mix boy is high drive, high intensity - not suitable for your average household. Leash walks alone ain’t cutting it for this guy. He’s lightening fast, toy, and food motivated…all wrapped in a 30lb package. Ralphie is estimated to be 8 months of age. You can tell by his awkwardness and the fact that he still squats to pee. He wants to please and loves, loves, loves, people but has never been taught the rules of good canine citizenship. He’s a jumper so seniors and kids beware. He’ll need a training forward household to bring him up to speed. Ralphie is microchipped, neutered, and UTD on vaccines. Compatibility with cats, critters, and livestock unknown at this time. Ralphie is in Arroyo Grande, CA More photos, video, and updates: https://www.facebook.com/www.cchdrescue.org/ search in posts and photo albums. Interested in Ralphie?
