My story

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

Meet Shaq, our charming 4-year-old who was found wandering an apartment complex and has quickly become a standout with his tall, ruggedly handsome demeanor. Much like his namesake, Shaq has a commanding presence and a heart of gold. While we're still getting to know this sweet boy, his playful antics in his kennel-constantly popping up to see what's going on-never fail to bring smiles to the faces of our staff.

His food motivation and intelligence make him a quick learner, and he's already proven to be housebroken. Although he prefers slow introductions to new situations and people, his endearing nature and eagerness to please make him a wonderful companion. With patience and love, Shaq is sure to blossom into an even more incredible friend.
