Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Trinity is one of the sweetest Dogos you might ever meet! She is extremely resilent after having spent many months in a shelter and finally went to a foster in the middle of June. She was experiencing a rough time at the shelter and was pretty skinny. Since being in foster care, she has made good progress behaviorally and emotionally, and she’s gained some weight!
She is crate trained, and housebroken (but poops on the cement instead of the ground, undoubtedly due to the many months she spent at the shelter). She knows “sit” “down” “wait” “shake” "leave it". She sits at the door before going out/coming in, catches treats in the air, AND knows how to walk on a treadmill!
She can be a bit timid at first, but warms up quickly. She has been tested with a male dog and did well. She’s very treat motivated. She’s very sweet and loving, and has never displayed any aggression in foster care. She especially enjoys her morning cuddle time. She likes playing with a semi-feral young dog when he’s kenneled in the backyard, and he runs around the kennel and she follows. She’s a pretty quiet dog.
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!
