Meet the top dog at Leech Tishman!
Rio Sampson
- Job Title: Top Dog
- Job Responsibilities: Since appearing in this feature last year, Rio has achieved a whole new level of status in the neighborhood. He’s unquestionably the top dog. Walking him has become especially difficult, as other dogs consistently stop him to ask for his paw print. But, thankfully, all of the attention has not gone to his head. He remains a regular dog – more or less – just sitting at the table, chilling on the couch, and reading legal treatises.
