My personality

Why I need a new home

Human health issues (e.g. allergies, sickness)

My story

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


This is hard for us to do since Polo is such a good dog. However, our daughter is allergic to him, which is the only reason we are looking for a new home for Polo. He is a nervous dog and loves to be with his humans. At the moment he is downstairs with our pit who has been his buddy for now. I think a home with an older couple and smaller dogs would do well for Polo. He is good with other pets but does need about 2 to 3 weeks to acclimate. He loves to be on your lap or run around and play with his toys. He loves to run which is why its so hard to keep weight on him. We adopted Polo 3 years ago from an older woman who adopted him a year prior and it was from an abusive owner so we have seen him react to loud noise or yelling, this is why it would be best to home him with an older couple or person.

So If you're looking for a well-behaved trained dog who just needs a lot of cuddles and love Polo is your boy.
