My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Meet Capri! Her story is one that is heard often. She and another dog in the home got into a fight which was initiated by the other dog and an 11-year-old attempted to step in and received puncture marks on the elbow, however no one is totally sure which dog grabbed the youth once and released as everything happened quickly.

Capri will be 3 years old in January and has been very well taken care of. She is up to date on all vaccines, spayed and recently had cherry eye removal and entropion surgery. Crate trained, leash trained and has completed obedience training from 6 to 12 months old.

Capri loves taking walks and spending time at the lake with her family. She is leery of dogs that are larger in size to her but has been around other dogs that she doesn’t live with. Although, one of her friends in the home is a rescue cat, this doesn’t mean she will get along with others.

The family takes full responsibility as to what happened and are truly heartbroken. At this point they feel the best decision is to find her another home. We ask that negative comments be kept to yourselves and you put that effort into helping Capri.

If you are the perfect person and environment for Capri please complete a family profile. Currently she is in Colorado, but transportation assistance can be arranged for the perfect forever.

Additional adoption info

Our rescue is breed-specific to the Neapolitan Mastiff, and while this breed is amazingly unique, it is certainly not for everyone. We want to ensure every dog's next home is truly FOREVER, so we are very careful with our placements.

* Due to same sex-aggression being so common among bully breeds, we do not place Neos in homes with another bully breed of the same sex (they must be opposite sex).

* Due to insurance and liability purposes, we do not adopt to families with children under 10-years old living in the home.

* We strongly prefer our adopters to have a secure fenced yard (no electric fences), but we do make a few exceptions.

* You must own your own home (no renters, please).

* Previous guardian breed experience is strongly preferred

We are a foster-based rescue, and our dogs are spread out across the USA, so we do not have adoption events.
