Riko is a gorgeous black and tan long-coated Shepherd. He is excellent with cats and the dogs in his foster home. He loves to sit beside you and watch TV and is a very devoted and adoring to his people. He is calm in the house yet loves to run around outside with his foster brothers. When on a leash, Riko will bark at other dogs but he is not dog-aggressive as he is friendly and playful with other dogs at the park and at home with all the new foster dogs. Riko is crazy about his squeaky bear toy and carries it around the house, dropping it into any lap available! What a cutie!
