Some dogs are born to be royalty, and Barkus Aurelius certainly got the memo! Affectionately known as Aurelio, this handsome 4-month-old Pit Bull Terrier/Labrador Retriever mix may have an emperor's name, but underneath it all is a goofy, affectionate puppy who's simply looking for his forever kingdom! Dressed in a stunning creamy tan coat and sporting the most mesmerizing icy blue eyes, Aurelio has the looks that stop people in their tracks. His soulful gaze, floppy ears, and sweet puppy face make it nearly impossible not to fall in love at first sight! As the only boy in his litter of three, Aurelio is every bit the lovable little gentleman. He's happiest when he's with his people, whether he's wrestling with his sisters, soaking up belly rubs, or climbing into your lap for a cuddle. He's the kind of puppy who's simply happy to be included in whatever adventure the day brings!
Ideal Home
Aurelio thrives on a structured routine. He hasn't been introduced to cats or young children yet, so slow, supervised introductions would be recommended.
Ongoing Health
No specific health concerns are mentioned.
Training & Support
Aurelio is making wonderful progress with crate training and potty training, while also learning patience and impulse control during meal times. Like any young puppy, he'll continue to blossom with consistency, positive reinforcement, and lots of encouragement. He's still working on not jumping when he gets excited. Like every puppy, Aurelio will need patience, consistency, routine, and plenty of love as he grows into adulthood.
