My story

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

Meet Gotti! This lovable senior pup had a rough life, but his story is one of resilience and hope. Thanks to his foster family, he has learned what it is like to feel love and safety. He is full of love and potential. With the right family, he'll thrive as he learns to enjoy life to the fullest. His foster mom gave him a lot of guidance - and she said he is a good listener- but she still had to keep a close eye on him because he thinks everything is a chew toy. Patience, guidance and supervision will help set him up for success.

Gotti appears to be house trained and is very quiet in his kennel. He knows "sit" and takes his treats gently. He also is a wonderful walking companion. Gotti loves to run around outside but he is learning that cuddling on the couch is also fun.

Gotti has been such a good boy during playgroups. He loves high action play, and he was incredibly tolerant of a vocal female player. He has played one on one with several different females and did well with each one.

If you're interested in learning more about him, please reach out to our Volunteer Matchmakers at wcac.matchmaker@gmail.com with the subject line "Gotti 253019"

Gotti has heartworms but it's treatable and not contagious. To help with the medical cost, a $400 sponsorship for treatment is provided by Friends of Wake County Animal Center. Email healaheart@outlook.com for more information.

Gotti can go home today! He is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick and heartworm prevention, already neutered, and is microchipped. He arrived at the shelter with 2 female dogs, but we are not sure how he is with male dogs. Proper introductions in a new home are important. If you have children, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times.
