About Romeo

Romeo is a handsome 4-year-old German Shepherd and Labrador mix who weighs about 55 lbs. He has a short, black and light brown coat and is already neutered and vaccinated. Romeo is a joyful and affectionate boy who loves human contact and is very huggable. He's intelligent, playful, and enjoys running. He was rescued as a puppy along with his sister, Julieta, after being found following a man who was trying to drive them away. They were scared and in need of help, so they were brought to the vet and hospitalized for days due to malnourishment and dehydration. Romeo has spent his life with a dedicated rescuer who cares for many other dogs. Due to unforeseen circumstances, Romeo is now looking for a stable, loving, and responsible home where he can finally experience the warmth of a family.
