My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Dino is a big ole 1-1.5 year old chocolate bear male dog! Dino stands on all fours between 2.5 and 3ft and on his hind legs he is taller than 5ft. He is currently under weight at 85 pounds by at least 15-20 pounds and he is very strong, but has a loving disposition. He was a big hit at the vet clinic who took care of him these days we had him boarded. Dino is house broken, good around older kids and seems to be fine around other dogs with good dispositions. Dino is treat motivated and does know some basic cues like sit, down, come and shake. Dino does still require more training especially regarding jumping up. Dino likes the water, plays fetch and enjoys walking and does well riding in a car. He appears to understand not to pull when walking if called back, but to keep Dino under control being such a big boy he does require an easy walk harness. I have been told that Dino prefers a home where someone is a stay-at-home since he gets bored left alone for too long and may chew or get destructive. He doesn't appear to have any aggressive issues around people regarding food, toys etc. and he does listen well. Dino does have scaring around his neck where we believe someone once chained him up and he tends to cower to loud sounds, but for the most part is well rounded in spite of his past. Dino with the right forever home will thrive and do famously well as a companion or family dog.
Dino is fully vetted; neutered, up-to-date on all vaccines, heart worm negative plus microchipped.
