My story

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

PLAYFUL & FUN-LOVIN' EMERALD!
Emerald loves to run around and play! She showed off her playing skills by finding toys that she pranced around with. She definitely enjoys life to the fullest, making the most of her time in the play yard. She is good with strangers, allowing pets and even face massages. She is treat motivated, has a soft mouth, and knows "sit" and "shake". This fun-loving girl is looking for a home with people who have dogo knowledge, and experience with large strong breeds, as well as time to give her for training, fun, and affection. (if children are present, they need to be over 12 y/o, with respect for dogs).

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!
