Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Solo is about 2-3 years old. He is 16lbs so not too small but almost medium. In person he looks more like the italian greyhound body, the shape- lean and swift. He also looks whippet.
He is a LOVE! Will give you one million kisses if you let him and this is no exaggeration. He is grateful. He is so thankful and loving. He came from Animal Control and was literally minutes from being put down due to just not enough space. We got the call to get him and a few others and we had to save this guy. And let me just say he makes me proud, happy, and grateful. And he feels the same by his actions alone. He is the true reason rescues exist. I only wish we could save more. There are just too many and not enough time to get them all homes and save each and every one before their time is up.
Solo puts a tear to your eye. He fills you....with joy. He has charisma. He loves all people, kids and other dogs. He comes up and just wants love. Looks at you with those puppy dog eyes. Its like he tells you what his heart feels. All we have to do is listen.
He came home with me from Animal Control and the first day he hung out on my bed. You can see the pics above. Stress free. He deserved it! He curls up with you when you lay down and follows. He is well behaved. Mellow but likes to follow and be with you.
He shakes a little when nervous but I think that is just because of what hes been through and within a minute he stops. I honestly love this dog. I want him to live a good long life with someone who will love and have the same loyalty he has. If your interested wait until you meet this guy. He just makes you happy, happy!
