My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Foster needed ASAP!!

We just rescued Holden from MDAS so we are still learning more about him. What we know so far is that he’s super sweet; is learning to walk nicely on a leash; he’s eager to learn. We are not sure how he is with other dogs right now so we need a home with no other dogs or the ability to separate dogs. Holden is currently located near Tampa. Transport can be arranged to approved foster home.

Dogos are a wonderful breed but we urge anyone interested to dig in and do a lot of research before deciding if they are a good fit for your home. They require a lot of attention and training with them never ends! Boundaries must be enforced and they often need reminders as they push past boundaires you set! Dogos are loving, kind and gentle but don't mistake that for weakness because they are equally powerful and intense as well! Everyone in the home must be on board with having a dogo and play a major role in their daily routines and training. Yes it is work, but the rewards are ten-fold! Lazy homes don't work for dogos as they need stimulation, exercise, and lots of attention too during their younger years. Our goal in rescue is to be as transparent as we can about each and every dog plus make sure new families really understand the needs of a dogo!
