Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Our foster dogs live as family members in the foster home until chosen for adoption. If you are interested and live within 100 miles of Cincinnati email his foster mom, Donna, doffen28@aol.com for more information on how he can become part of your family.
**********IMPORTANT NOTE: PLEASE PLEASE IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS*******
direct any and all questions (that includes fees and location) about this sweet pup to his foster mom, Donna, by email doffen28@aol.com Using any other email will just add a delay in you getting the info.
Reno is a sweet little guy who is about 4 years old. He arrived at the shelter because his owner could not longer afford him. I wasn't sure about fostering such a small dog (I prefer larger dogs) but I have been pleasantly surprised at how much my husband I enjoy him. He is such a social and sweet dog. He gets along great with our 3 other dogs who are much larger than he is.
He appears to be housetrained and he comes when called. After spending months in the shelter laying on the concrete floor he appears to be in heaven lounging on a soft dog bed. He also goes into his crate one his own and burrows into the blankets to keep his little body warm. He looks a bit too thin so he probably needs to gain another pound or two.
I think Reno will do well in many different types of households. He is friendly, not yappy ( he has a sweet quiet bark when someone comes to our door), he gets along great with dogs and but will chase after cats. He loves to be held but he's also content laying on his dog bed taking a snooze.
You can contact his foster mom, Donna, by email doffen28@aol.com for more information on how he can become part of your family.
