Ralphie the ‘demon dog’ who went viral because he was returned a couple of times to the Niagara shelter in New York, is going to a new home.
The Niagara SPCA shelter reported that this will be the fourth time that he will seek to find a new family.
The pet underwent an intensive training course for six weeks prior to being put up for adoption.
Following the Frenchie’s fame, the shelter reviewed hundreds of requests before settling on one.
“After reviewing over 700 emails, speaking to several dozen potential adopters, and submitting applicants to Ralphie’s Trainer for review, we found that we think he’s the perfect Ralphie adopter,” they wrote on their Facebook page.
Ralphie will live with another frenchie, a daschund and a German shepherd.
The new family has already adopted several ‘restless’ dogs, so they hope this will be the ultimate home for the pet.

Rorer says that in addition to his grandmother’s adrenaline, he also tries to inherit her philosophy of life. “She always says take each day as it comes and be thankful you woke up today, and I try to embody that even when it’s easy to forget in this hectic world.”

“I don’t know where he got the idea from, but he loves to fly and he had seen people do it at military events, because my grandfather fought in World War II. I think it was something that intrigued him and he decided to do it, at 85 years old”.
