My story

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

Important Facts About Draco
Dogs: Draco lived with other dogs in his previous home.
Cats: Draco lived with cats in his previous home.
Kids: Unknown.
House-trained: Draco is still young and working on his house training.

Draco may take a little time to let his guard down, but once he does, you’ll see just how sweet and loyal this boy truly is. With patience and love, Draco transforms into the ultimate cuddle companion - an absolute love bug who’s ready to give his whole heart.

He’s the kind of dog who bonds deeply and falls hard, making him a faithful friend for life. Draco just needs someone willing to give him the space to shine and the chance to show off his wonderful personality.

This is what a potential adopter has said about Draco!

`Draco is a very sweet and affectionate dog who loves being around people. He enjoys cuddling, following you around, and being part of daily routines. He has a playful side and lots of energy, which would make him a great match for an active household.

He is very friendly with cats, dogs, children, and people in general, so if you already have other pets at home, he could be a perfect fit.`

If you’re looking for a loyal pup who will love you with everything he’s got, Draco is waiting to meet you.

If you are interested in adopting Draco, please email awla.foster.ashlyn@gmail.com to arrange a meet and greet with Draco`s foster. They will reach out to you within 24 to 48 hours.
