My story

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

Meet Bodie!

Bodie (formerly Perseus) is crate trained, housebroken, and knows basic commands. He can catch treats in the air and walks well on leash!

He is Very energetic and loves playing with his toys! He especially loves his favorite “dolly”, and can go find it on command! He’s very smart and catches on to training & corrections quickly. He also sits at the door waiting to come in or go out.

He has even learned to walk on the treadmill and enjoys it!! Bodie likes fetching his ball, hanging out in the backyard, laying on the deck, and running around.

He’s a sweet boy who wants attention and to be loved. He’s about 18 months old, and 80 pounds.

He is neutered & fully vetted. Has been dog tested with female dogs. He has not been tested with cats or kids, but older kids with big dog experience could be an option.

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!
