My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi there, I'm Lorenzo! I'm a sweet and gentle pup who's feeling a bit overwhelmed in the noisy shelter environment. I'm really hoping to find a kind-hearted foster or adopter who can help me discover what love and comfort truly mean.
Even though I'm a little nervous, I've been making great strides in the shelter, especially when it comes to making friends with other dogs at playgroup. I think having a furry sibling in my future home would be fantastic, and I'm sure we'd get along well together.
I came to the shelter as a puppy, and now, at one year old, I've spent my entire formative time here. I was found and brought in by a kind Samaritan, and while I'm not eager to revisit my past, I'm ready to focus on my future. My shelter friends believe my early days weren't the best, but I'm determined to show my new family just how much love I have to give. I can't wait to play with toys, enjoy cozy moments, and become a cherished member of your family. Please consider giving me the chance to be your loyal companion!
