Here's what the humans have to say about me:
We are so excited for you to meet Dom the house hippo!! 🦛
Dom came to us as a part of a neglect situation with his sister, where we teamed up with another rescue to come to their aid. He is now under the care of DGDR and thriving with his foster mom! He is around a year old and is just an overgrown puppy! His foster mom says he is curious and excited about life - you’d never know he had a hard past!❤️
This cutie loves his stuffed panda and his stuffed dinosaur! He is extremely treat-driven (especially for cheese) and he loves a good game of fetch or tug o war! He is a “happy go lucky” pup that loves life and everything in it. He is a little excitable when meeting new pups but his foster parents are working on teaching him proper manners with other dogs🤣 it’s not his fault, he’s just so eager to meet new friends! 🐶
Dom is fully crate trained and goes in on cue for his foster mama. He is working on his leash skills (he is big and strong!) but learning quickly with the help of yummy treats! His foster mom says his perfect day would start with a cool hike and lots of sniffs, followed by a good game of fetch and ending with snuggles and kisses on the couch!😉
If you’re looking for a beautiful pittie boy and ready to give him allll the loving, Dom is the guy for you!💕
