Dreamy Dusk is looking for his forever family, and wants his new people to know these 10 things about him:
I am a Cane Corso, and I am about 3.5 years old. I am very small for my breed, and will probably never weigh more than 80lbs. My life before rescue was pretty sad. My owner died and nobody in his family came to take care of me or my dog sister. Sometimes a neighbor would throw food over the fence for us, but we didn’t have any shelter or water for a long time. By the time that animal control came to check on us, we were almost dead. Despite all of the bad things I went through, I am a super social boy that really likes almost everyone I meet. I think I would do well in a home with children over 12, as long as they weren’t too loud or rambunctious and had some previous experience/training with big dogs. As I've gotten older, I still love to play and think I would love to train. I'm very athletic and love playing catch/fetch with my toys. I would love an active forever family that will help me channel my high spirits into positive outlets. I enjoy the company of other large dogs, but I’m not the best at engaging in a calm manner. To be honest, I tend to get over-excited and it can come across as aggressive and rude. If my new family had a large female dog that was very patient, I think it might work, but I also wouldn’t mind being the one-and-only center of attention. I haven’t had much experience with smaller dogs since coming to the Bullpen, so I’m just not sure that a home with these kinds of pets is right for me. I am interested in the barn cats that hang around the sanctuary in all the wrong ways, so a feline-free family is the best fit for me. The words that best describe me are vivacious, playful, and energetic. My favorite things to do are playing with toys and sticks, getting treats, and running around outside.
Ideal Home
A home with children over 12, as long as they aren’t too loud or rambunctious and have some previous experience/training with big dogs. A home without smaller dogs or cats.
Ongoing Health
Dusk is fully vaccinated, heartworm negative, neutered, and microchipped.
Training & Support
Dusk is housebroken, knows basic obedience, and how to use a dog door. He is getting better with his leash skills every day and is not too bad in a crate. He can get over-excited when meeting other large dogs, so he would do best with a patient, large female dog or as the only pet.
