He has great house manners would likely do best with a doggy companion to bond with. He also loves nature and hanging out in the back yard observing the scenery. Ripley is especially fascinated with the horses living in the pasture behind his foster home. He is a quiet fellow, but when he does speak, his vocalizations sound like he is trying to talk! This little guy just wants a loving family that will take him into their home and hearts forever. EVERY DOG HAS A STORY: Fayetteville Animal Protection, a no-kill shelter, contacted BFPA as they had rescued 24 Chihuahua/Pug mixes from a puppy mill situation. Two of our wonderful volunteers went down to meet the little dogs, and brought 4 back to BFPA. Ginger, Cassie, Milo and Ripley are now waiting patiently for their loving forever homes.
