Personality: Rizza has a sweet disposition and is sweet, gentle and motherly

Temperament: Rizza is calm and has been "accepting" of the many firsts she has had

Energy Level: Rizza is appropriate in the house and calm- she does however love to run and play outside with the other dogs and her people

Favorite Activities: Outside time with the other dogs and lots of belly rubs

Good with cats, dogs and kids over 6? Not cat tested, has done well with other dogs and people she has met.

Housetrained: Yes

Crate trained: Has not been in a crate since she is housetrained and does great with the other dogs in the house, would benefit from crate for any length of time alone as she is curious- this would be something to work on.

Challenges: Rizza likes her people and wants to be around them all the time- she requires a fair amount of attention. She will require a 6 foot fenced yard

Any Medical Issues: None known

Best kind of home: Rizza would do best in an active home where she can be included in the action. Other dogs would be helpful to provide companionship and teach her "the ropes". She does best when her people are around.
