Rikki's Story: Unique Dog Finds Best Friend

Several months ago, a little dog named Rikki arrived at the Animal Rescue League of Boston's Dedham Adoption Center. Though she had a deformity in her front legs, she certainly didn’t act like she did. She moved and played, and was especially sweet.

And that’s what the family that adopted Rikki saw—an affectionate and playful pup who just thought she was like every other dog.

The Animal Rescue League treats every animal as an individual and believes that every pet deserves a chance to experience love and human companionship.  Visit the Animal Rescue League’s Cape Cod Adoption Center on Route 6A in Brewster if you’d like to adopt a companion.

Here’s a look at the touching video about Rikki -
