My story

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

Dom the “house hippo” is coming up on his 3rd birthday in February, and he wants to spend it in a home of his own!🖤

This cutie looooves to go for walks. Whenever he hears “Do you want to go outside” or someone grabs his leash, he will hurry to the door and eagerly wait to go! 🐕

Dom loves to lay on the couch after the excitement of seeing you wears off, but he will greet you with zoomies and kisses. He is his foster mom’s shadow, and he carries a toy in his mouth almost always. 🧸

Dom loves to fetch. He will let you throw his toy until you get tired of throwing it because he will never get tired of it! 🎾

This handsome boy is crate trained & house trained. He loves for his food to have fish oil in it and eats from a slow-feeder bowl because he is a hungry hippo! 🦛

Since Dom does not want to miss out on anything exciting, he does cry a little when he first goes into his crate for the night. This is resolved by some white noise while he sleeps!
Dom uses a collar and a tactile leash only. This is not only helpful for his leash training (he is doing amazing), but is also helpful for you especially when out in public. 🐕

Dom will do best in a single-pet home. He is good with other dogs, but he gets overly excited with them and due to his size, it may make them nervous! We would let him go to a multi-pet home if it was the perfect fit 🖤
