Rhett is such a love. He is super snuggly and super affectionate. I think every volunteer that has met him, was instantly in love - I know I was.
Rhett was at the Brooks Animal Shelter for quite a while and was really feeling the need to stretch those long legs of his so he has come to Windy City to stay in a foster home.
He has great dog skills and is pretty laid back around them so other dogs seem to accept him almost instantly.
He loves to play catch, but can't quite figure out the concept of bringing the toy back. So once you throw it, YOU have to go get it to throw it again but he'll love you all the more for it.
The volunteers and staff in Brooks have done a great job teaching him basic commands including sit, down and come as well as teaching him pretty good manners. He will get excited and forget himself and jump on you, but with a gentle "off" he remembers that he is supposed to keep 4 feet on the floor.
He is a very sweet dog and if you don't mind his size (he is quite tall!), he would be a welcome addition into almost any home.
Every dog with the Windy City Canine Rescue will be vaccination, microchipped and spayed/neutered prior to adoption. Our adoption fee is $300.
