Here's what the humans have to say about me:
It's always difficult to understand when a beautiful 3 or so year old, 27 lb dog with an exceptional temperament (and his sister Julia) is turned into a municipal shelter. Lorenzo is described by his guardian with the following adjectives: perfect, house trained, super-loving, devoted and the best dog ever...and yes...real men DO wear pink! The Farfel's rescuers are so happy to rescue Lorenzo from his shelter life and provide him with a Colorado home that will love and appreciate this exceptional Poodle/Lhasa. Lorenzo couldn't love his humans more. He's always ready for a long bellyrub, a walk in the mountains or even running errands makes Lorenzo happy if he's with his family. He would be perfect in a dog-friendly workplace and would never consider behavior that is babyish or destructive. Lorenzo also loves his time with children. He enjoys playtime and is always gentle and very careful to be kind with hesitant children. He's also very excited to spend time with his canine companions. His tail wags with the joy of the moment. Lorenzo is an outgoing and adventurous guy... he's always ready for anything you might suggest. He lets you know how happy he is when he's included in the fun! His life in an Oklahoma shelter was too sedentary for Lorenzo and added a few extra pounds around his middle....he would enjoy the healthy food and consistent exercise that will take those pounds off. He walks perfectly on a leash and is always a pleasure to be out and about with...truly a well-behaved, joyous companion. Lorenzo is a non-shedding pup and will therefore require periodic grooming to keep his coat healthy and matt-free.
Lorenzo is being fostered in Boulder, CO.. Applications are currently being accepted for this amazing and loving companion. He's also available for a "meet & greet" with a great Colorado/Wyoming/ NM home.
