Critter Details

Meet Ray — a short, squatty bully breed sweetheart who’s guaranteed to bring rays of sunshine into even the cloudiest of days! This low-riding house hippo is the total package — handsome, gentle, and oh-so-sweet.Ray's previous family said he is great with housetraining, crate trained, and knows how to use a dog door — a true gentleman with manners! He’s good with other dogs and enjoys playful moments with his canine friends, but he’s just as happy lounging by your side with his signature land seal smile.This boy has it all: a heart of gold, cropped little ears that make him extra cute, and a calm, loving energy that makes him the perfect cuddle buddy. He’s food motivated, walks well on the leash, and always greets his people with a happy tail and a hopeful heart.Ray has lived with another dog before and would love to have a buddy to share his sunny spirit with. Whether he’s soaking up belly rubs or melting into your lap, he’s ready to make every day brighter.If you’re looking for a ray of joy, light, and unconditional love, your search ends here — Ray is ready to light up your life forever. Ray was rescued from a shelter in New Mexico.Meet and greets are by appointment only.  An approved application is required to schedule a meeting. Check out our events page for upcoming open adoption events!We have no additional back story or update for this dog at this time.  When we do, it will be updated here.  This is all the information we have currently. Approved Applicants may make the adoption fee payment by clicking donate above.  Partial adoption fees will not hold a dog. If upon meeting the dog of your choosing at your scheduled pickup time you find that you aren't a good match, your deposit will be fully refunded. Adoption fees include vaccines up until time of adoption, microchip, spay/neuter and 1st 30 days of free pet insurance.  We are not affiliated with MetLife pet insurance. (you have to sign up for the insurance or it will not go into effect).  Adoption fees help cover the medical care of the animals while he or she waits for a new home, as well as food and transportation costs. These fees help to provide care for the other animals in the shelter or rescue group who may have medical bills that are much higher than any possible adoption fee. The money also acts as a donation to help support the organization as a whole, allowing the group to continue its efforts to rescue and rehome pets. The dogs in our care are fostered in Colorado, Texas, and New Mexico.  While all dogs are picked up during our scheduled times, sometimes transport dates change due to unforeseen circumstances.   More questions?  Read our FAQs here: https://4p4l.org/faqs/  Breed labels are a "best guess" by a shelter veterinarian and cannot be guaranteed.
