Meet Dino– Your Future Best Friend!
Dino is a lovable heartthrob who’s ready to steal your heart (and maybe sneak a kiss or two when you`re not looking!).

This affectionate boy is the total package — sweet, gentle, smart, handsome and incredibly easygoing. He’s got a mega-watt smile and a constantly wagging tail that tells you just how happy he is to be with his people. Two of his favorite things? Nuzzling his head into your lap for some quality cuddle time & some yummy treats!

Dino is potty and crate trained and very smart! He already knows “sit”, “paw”, “stay” and “down”. He’s food motivated and takes treats ever so gently, which, combined with his eager-to-please attitude and great eye contact, makes him wonderfully
trainable.

He’s a joy to walk — generally easy on the leash, though he can get a little excited when he sees other dogs. Because of that (and because he can be picky with his dog friends), he’ll thrive best as the only dog in the home. He’s probably a little too interested in cats as well, so an animal free home is ideal!

Looking for a dog who’s calm indoors? Dino hasn’t barked inside at all and has a gentle, quiet demeanor that would make him a great fit for apartment living.

He’s also a fantastic car companion — relaxed and happy to ride along wherever you go.

Sweet and gentle, Dino loves people and thrives on affection. He’s an excellent running buddy who enjoys cuddles, playtime, treats, and toys. Crate trained and people-motivated, Dino can be leash-excited around other dogs but may do well with slow introductions to a calm, submissive, or neutral female dog.

What he really excels at is loving his humans. He’s happiest when meeting new people and will shower you with affection every chance he gets. If you’re looking for a loyal companion & you have a pet free home, Dino might just be your perfect match!

Come meet this sweet brindle boy — he’s ready to fill your life with love, laughter, and lots of tail wags.
