RICKY IS CURRENTLY HOUSED AT ROCHESTER ANIMAL CONTROL

Ricky is a young Husky mix who was found as stray. No one came to claim him. He is less than a year old and already let down in life. It’s a sad reality for so many cats and dogs. Dogs are forgiving creatures, and Ricky holds no grudges. He is a fun dog, full of energy and affection. Ricky would thrive in an active family that includes him on all sorts of adventures. If you think Ricky is the one for you, apply online.

*Applications for adoption can be found on the home page of the website

**Adoption fee: $300 + $30 microchip fee + tax
