Greetings from Southwest FL. 'Ralphy' is 10 years old. He is ‘silver,' has natural ears and a docked tail. He weighs in at 19 lbs. He is house, crate and leash trained. He loves his walks in the neighborhood. Ralphy is very playful. He loves attention, loves to cuddle and sit on his foster mom’s lap to watch tv. 
Ralphy enjoys his car rides. He would be fine with children who are at least 10 years old. He can be an Alpha at times with other dogs. He can be an only dog but because he is very playful, another dog would be best for Ralphy. He loves playing with all of his toys. He enjoys a fenced yard but would be fine without one as long as he gets several walks a day to enjoy his neighborhood.
Both of Ralphy’s hind legs will tremor at times. It does not bother him at all. He will limp at times on his right rear leg. Ralphy’s lab work is suggestive for Cushings but he does not display any symptoms. 
If after reading Ralphy’s biography, you are interested in knowing more details about this sweet gentleman, please complete an adoption application on the SLR web site and enter ‘Ralphy’ as the very sweet boy you would like to provide a forever home to
