Riggs is happy, outgoing, and looks to be a purebred black lab. He originally arrived at our shelter on 10/30/2023 when he was around 9 months old, after being found as a stray. He was adopted shortly after, but was returned after over 4 months in his home when there was a big change in his family's situation. He's now a little over a year old and is a typical young lab who has never met a stranger. Everyone is his bud! He has been fully vetted and chipped and his fee is $150.

Riggs has had a little basic training and is smart, enthusiastic, and eager for more. If he can learn to harness his enthusiasm, he'll be unstoppable. He has matured into a pretty large and strong dog who should do okay with dogs of similar size and energy (so much energy!). He's been known to play a little too rough with smaller dogs and probably would be too much for cats. Kids over 5 would be best for him. He loves car rides, too!

NOTE:  Adoptions are done via private appointment once an application has been completed and approved. Applications can be submitted at our website, mchs.rescuegroups.org.
