Why I need a new home

Found or abandoned

My story

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

Curtis was found tied to a fence behind a fire department. When we brought him home we discovered his harness had a zipper compartment with a note from the owner. It said he was no longer able to care for him, he is deaf, he was a sweet boy, a dogo argentino, and has a skin condition. He was underweight too.
We took him to the vet and he is a very healthy dog now.
He gets along well with most dogs, but sometimes has a battle for dominance with our male bulldog.
He loves rough playing with a foster female husky we have and they will play outside for hours.
Since he is deaf, he has special needs, and is very needy for attention and affection. He prefers to be by your side and feels comforted when being pet. When he is napping, he makes loud whiny noises which is typical of deaf dogs. And makes the funniest grunting noises for attention.
He is an indoor dog, but he doesn’t walk, he always moves about quickly and not suited for small kids or elderly he could easily knock over.
