My story

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

Meet Mateo!
Someone found him with a badly broken leg, and the man he was microchipped to said to euthanize him. Now his leg has been amputated, and he is up to date on all his shots.

About him:
* Super sweet.
* Loves to give kisses, smile, and cuddle.
* Rarely barks.
* Potty-trained.
* Short fur and doesn’t seem to shed a lot!
* Barely chews anything, and loves toys, fetch, and peanut butter.
* NEVER scratches on door or whines.
* Good with some other dogs while outside (He does grumble and get territorial inside, so he needs to be in a house that is cat and dog free, but NO aggression ever with people).
* Not phased by thunder.
* Loves to run. (Even with missing back right leg, he does wonderful!)
* Waits for me in bed at night when I go out the back door.
* Needs to work on walking by your side, which should be easy to teach him if alone. (I have several dogs so always I walk two at a time!)

He weighs 50ish lbs, and is 2 years old. He is honestly a perfect boy with people.
