Say hello to Riku, a gentle soul with a heart full of love just waiting to be discovered. This sweet pup might be a little shy when you first meet him, but give him a bit of time and patience, and you'll see his true colors shine through – and they’re beautiful! He thrives in a calm, loving environment and would do best with someone who understands that trust takes time – but the reward is an unbreakable bond and endless cuddles.

He enjoys peaceful walks, soft toys, and cozy nap spots where he can feel secure. With a gentle hand and an open heart, Riku will blossom into the loyal companion you’ve always dreamed of.
