Ryker is a 2 year old hound mix, he weighs about 66 pounds.  

The name Ryker means "brave" and that describes him perfectly.  Ryker was taken from an abusive home and recently had surgery on his eye.  Unfortunately his eye was so damaged it had to be removed.  Ryker is doing great and he was happy to pose for pictures with his embarrassing head cone.  

It is time that Ryker knows what a real home is like and what family means.  He won't really have an adjustment with his vision because he couldn't see out of his eye anyway.  Now he is free from any pain he had before and much happier.

He was with another dog when he came in and did well but we will make sure to try him with any potential adopters dogs.  Please fill out an application if you would like to adopt Ryker.  He also needs an immediate foster home if anyone can help out.
