Meet Shito, a big, lovable St. Bernard mix with a glow-up story that will absolutely steal your heart. Shito's beginning was heartbreaking. The first year of his life was spent confined to a tiny cage, living in his own waste. When his “owner” was charged with cruelty, he was then chained in the desert heat. Eventually, he and his siblings were cut loose—left to fend for themselves, scared and unsure of the world. When we got the call, we knew we had to help. After 10 long days, all six dogs were safely secured. And Shito? Despite everything... he chose trust. Today, he's blossomed into an affectionate, goofy, treat-loving boy who's learning to leave his past behind—one brush session at a time (his absolute favorite). He walks like a show pony on leash, gives sweet kisses, and has a constantly happy tail wag. Shito is food motivated, sits fast for snacks, and absolutely loves being brushed. He's a gentle, goofy, and full of love total heart-stealer with a soft, soulful nature.
Ideal Home
Shito would thrive in a loving, stable home that can continue guiding him while giving him all the affection he craves. He's looking for someone who appreciates a big, gentle dog with a playful side—and who will continue reinforcing his manners and confidence. A home with older kids (or adults only) and lots of love will help him truly flourish. He must be the only dog in the home—he deserves to be your one-and-only.
Ongoing Health

Training & Support
Shito is still learning that paws stay on the ground. He is not a fan of little kids, as tiny feet can make him nervous. Continued positive reinforcement for his manners and confidence will help him succeed.
