Ernesto

Little Ernesto was picked up as a stray, like so many other sweet pups. He's a super cute little guy and just the perfect size! We're not entirely sure about his breed mix, so if you have any expert opinions, please let us know! All we know is that he's an absolutely adorable dog. Ernesto was understandably uncertain and a bit scared when he first arrived at the shelter. He's really come out of his shell and is doing wonderfully now. He absolutely loves going outside and playing with his buddies in our exercise areas. However, some things still startle him. The tools used for cleaning kennels can make him uneasy, and he can experience panic when he hears the blower being used. Ernesto is sure to be a fantastic companion, but he'll need a special person with experience in helping shy or traumatized dogs build confidence.
