Raider is Pet of The Week at Your Rancho Coastal Humane Society

Adopt him and get a foot warmer.

Raider is pet of the week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society. He’s a 3 year old, 23 pound, Chihuahua mix.

One of the care providers in the kennels describes Raider as “a little champ.” Because of his size, he’s cautious. But he gets along well with most other dogs.

When it comes to people, Raider will cuddle all day, unless he sees a tennis ball. Playing with a tennis ball is his absolute favorite thing ever. He could do it for hours.

After a full day of playing ball and an evening of cuddling, Raider is ready to crawl under the covers with you and go all the way to the bottom of the bed to keep your feet warm.

He was transferred to Rancho Coastal Humane Society from another shelter through the FOCAS program.
