River

Rescued by Hopeland Dog Sanctuary

Male

Status: Adopted

River’s journey began in heartbreak — abandoned in a basket near a river, cold, scared, and fighting for his life alongside his siblings. Yet even then, there was something in his eyes: a quiet strength, as if he knew he had a chance. With the help of a swift rescue and the devotion of a caring veterinary team, River not only survived but made a full recovery.

From that moment on, his true nature began to shine. River grew into a joyful, playful, and loving soul — the kind of dog who finds happiness in a cuddle, a walk, or simply being close to his people.

And then, the day came when River’s story turned into the happiest of tales: he found his forever family. Today, he no longer knows fear or loneliness. Instead, he is cherished, safe, and living the life every dog deserves — filled with adventures, affection, and the unbreakable bond of love.

River’s name suits him perfectly — he has flowed from hardship into happiness, and now his life moves forward in joy, always by the side of those who love him most.
