Valentino brings a "good vibes only" energy to every room he enters, with a goofy boxer-style enthusiasm and a permanent happy grin. This 2-year-old, 61lb bundle of joy is playful, affectionate, and full of personality. He forms sweet bonds once comfortable and truly seems excited to exist every single day. Valentino adores people, loves attention, and has a joyful presence that makes him incredibly fun to be around.
Ideal Home
Valentino would thrive in a home with a backyard where he can zoom around, play with toys, and enjoy the outdoors. He would also enjoy a family that can include him in hikes, adventures, and playtime, and then relax with him on the couch. He is willing to be tested with any other animals to ensure a perfect match.
Ongoing Health
Valentino is a rescue dog, and while his breed and exact age are unknown, he is believed to be an American Staffy/Boxer mix. He has received all necessary vetting, including DAPP with booster, Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, deworming, flea and heartworm prevention, and a microchip.
Training & Support
Valentino is crate-trained, potty-trained, and very smart, eager to please. He knows commands like "sit" and is a quick learner. While he walks well on leash, he can sometimes pull out of excitement. He will thrive with adopters who provide consistent structure, training, and positive outlets for his happy energy, along with confident guidance and clear boundaries.
