Here's what the humans have to say about me:
You can call me Vinny if you'd like! I came all the way from Texas where I was on the euthanasia list. These nice people saw my post asking for help and they saved me.
I have the nicest foster family. It's because of them I am here. They really are taking the bestest care of me and say I'm really sweet.
Here's what my amazing foster mom has to say 'bout me:
He is very friendly and social and loves your attention. (He's a hugger but not in an aggressive way- I am working on telling him down.) He knows sit and is treat motivated so I bet he will love to learn more tricks. He comes when called and listens well. Walks well on leash and so far has kept his crate clean and no accidents.
His tummy is going through some food changes and I am impressed he has not had an accident in my house- I am also being consistent on letting him out.
He gets along with my dogs and is interested in my cat but backed off when the cat said no thank you!
He slept in his crate the last couple nights, but he does cry in the very beginning. I think he just misses people, but he's quiet the rest of the night. No issues with my kids or their friends however, but he doesn't know his size so may need to be cautious around smaller kiddos.
He is a bag of bones at 50 pounds right now so once he packs on some weight, he will be a pretty good sized boy. I gave him a bath and he tolerated it just fine. He does need a grooming to just sort of get his coat evened out, but I think his coat will be easily maintained after that. He doesn't have that real tight curl so regular brushing and an occasional groom will suit him. He gets up in the car easily and seems to want to ride, but I think he gets a bit spooked during. I think he will be fine after settling in, he has had a lot of trauma and traveling lately. He did great at vet today and was a friendly pal to all people and dogs!

All meet and greets will need to be arranged with the foster. We do not have a facility.
