My name is Raphael, but they call me Raffy - it suits my "happy go lucky, give me more of it" attitude! I am 10 months old and ready to take on the whole world when given the chance.
Each day I am learning something new, and I already know the words, sit, down, and leave it. And what to do when you say them to me- that's the important part because it means I earn praise and a treat. And I love both!
My world is really big and I love it all. Zack, the boy down the street helps my foster Mom walk me. I love children a lot, and I give lots of kisses in return for them playing with me and giving me those extra special belly rubs.
I also get along really well with my foster havi-sister. We share all of the toys and take turns with the one that is a favorite. 
I love riding on the water on a thing they call a boat. I get to wear a life jacket, that makes me look really cool and all the other boaters try to get me to wave to them.
I have to confess to one t
hing though, but don't tell anyone - I get to sleep on the bed with sissy and my foster parents, because the crate thing makes me very nervous. I hope that won't hurt my chances in finding the perfect furever home, because otherwise I AM perfect. I was even blessed with that short-hair gene, so grooming is minimal - told you I was cool didn't I?
Raffie is being fostered in OH.
