My story

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

Meet Diego, a handsome boy that knows sit, down, and stay like the back of his paw, and he`ll do it all for a tasty reward. Despite being an older gentleman, Diego still has plenty of spark in his eye and lots of energy to burn off. He`s a strong-willed dog with a strong ball drive, so be prepared for some extra sets of playtime. Diego is looking for an adopter who understands that he`s still getting over the loss of his former owner. He`ll need some time to adjust to new surroundings and people, but with patience, love, and understanding, he`ll blossom into a loyal companion. If you`re ready to provide Diego with the space he needs and shower him with snacks, he`ll be your best friend forever!
