NICKNAME: Rio dog or Little dog.
GIVE US A LITTLE BACKGROUND INFORMATION ABOUT YOURSELF.
I'm only a year and nine months old but boy, have I done a lot in my life so far. I've hiked mountains, rafted and SUPed rivers, met tons of new dog friends, and played a lot of fetch.. I sure do love fetch.
Some of my favorite things to do other then playing fetch is to go hiking, chew on my dog toys, roll in dead things, playing with my Cat sister Kyra, and give lots of kisses.
I love people, and other animals and get really excited when ever I get the chance to make new friends. My parents tend to scold me when I jump up on people, but all I'm trying to do is give them kisses on their face. I've heard that's what you do to people you care about, and I haven't met anyone that I don't care for.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE RIVER THAT WILDWATER OFFERS?
I would have to say that my favorite river that Wildwater rafts would be the Wenatchee. It is my home river, and the first experience I had with whitewater. I love the main section for rafting and the lower section for stand up paddling.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE RIVER OR MULTI-DAY TRIP?
My favorite multi -day river trip is the Rogue River in Southern Oregon. I joined my parents and some friends on the Rogue river last October to celebrate my Dad's 30th birthday. Boy did we have fun! 5 days spent rafting, hiking, and running around on the beaches and banks of the beautiful Rogue river was a blast. I even SUPed with my Mom and swam through a rapid. I can't wait to get back out on the Rogue River, maybe we will get to go back this Fall.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE QUOTE?
"It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog." - Mark Twain

WHAT IS YOUR SPIRIT ANIMAL AND WHY?
My spirit animal is a Honey Badger because most of the time I don't really care what happens as long as I have a toy to play with.
