My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Cello’s story is one of strength and second chances. Rescued from a cruelty case, this sweet boy is discovering that the world can be a kind and loving place—and he’s absolutely blossoming!
Cello is a happy, affectionate, and smart young pup who just wants to be near his people. He’s learning that alone time isn’t so scary, and he’s already making great progress—he’s been sleeping through the night without touching his bedding (what a good boy!).
This handsome Catahoula mix has a heart as big as his ears (and just wait until you see those ears!). He loves playtime, belly rubs, and learning new things. With continued patience and love, Cello will grow into the confident, loyal companion he’s meant to be.
If you’re looking for a young dog with a resilient spirit, boundless affection, and the best ears in town, Cello might just be your perfect duet partner.
