My story

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

https://foha.org/pet/valentino2024/

Hey there, my name is Valentino!

And I'm the missing valentine you need in your life!

I'm known for being an adorable and strong dog. I was tethered to a tree for ten days before being rescued by the wonderful people at FOHA. In my eyes, you can catch a glimpse of trauma and hope, eager to meet my new family. Naturally, I am slightly shy about meeting others, but my curiosity outweighs my fears. Once I get a second to warm up to folks and get to know them, I show my sweet and loving side. I love to engage with people, getting cuddled, soaking up affection, and feeling loved. I enjoy showing my fondness and affection and have loads of love to give!

Valentino has made a lot of progress in his short-term foster home. He gets along great with the resident dogs, but for some reason didn't adjust well to another dog coming to visit, so he would need slower introductions. Valentino would be better off with older kids and definitely needs a dog introduction. He is starting to listen to commands and is calming down. He seems to be wary of men at first and just needs to go super slow and let him sniff new people. Valentino would not do well with cats unless the new owners are willing to work with him intensively.
