Meet Enzo, a resilient, joyful, and affectionate 3-year-old who has blossomed with love, patience, and good food. He gained around 10 pounds after arriving heartbreakingly thin and enjoys playgroups with other dogs. Enzo loves attention and is ready for a family who will continue supporting his health and future care.

Ideal Home

Enzo enjoys playing with other dogs and thrives on affection. Meet-and-greets with resident dogs and children are recommended to help ensure a great fit.

Ongoing Health

• Enzo previously had a skin infection and arrived in very poor condition.
• His front legs are permanently bowed, possibly due to past poor nutrition or a congenital condition.
• He weighs 56.6 pounds and needs a family prepared to support continued weight gain and any future care related to his legs.
• He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines and preventatives.

Training & Support

Enzo keeps up well despite his bowed front legs and enjoys playgroups with other dogs. Adopters should establish veterinary care after adoption and allow him time to decompress, settle in, and build trust.
