Enzo is a handsome, resilient dog whose past, while difficult, has only highlighted his incredible capacity for love and loyalty. This brave boy was surrendered to Mikaela's Mutt Motel after a concerned citizen intervened regarding his heartbreaking living conditions.
For too long, Enzo knew a harsh life. He was chained to a tree with a painful metal choke collar, forced to endure freezing temperatures with nothing more than a doghouse lacking bedding or straw, frozen water, and food iced to the ground. He had known these conditions since he was a pup.
Understandably, Enzo's history means he takes time to trust new people. He has learned to be cautious, but once he realizes you mean him no harm, his entire demeanor changes. Beneath the hesitation is a true best friend just waiting to emerge. When you earn his trust, you will gain a devoted companion for life.
Enzo has shown he does well with other dogs. However, due to his past resource guarding and need for security, he must be fed separately from any canine companions to ensure a peaceful mealtime for everyone.
This boy is very smart, highly food-motivated, and eager to please his humans. This makes him a fantastic candidate for positive reinforcement training! He will thrive in a home where he can learn new tricks and tasks, which will build his confidence and strengthen your relationship.
Enzo is looking for a patient, understanding adopter who is committed to showing him what a safe and comfortable home truly feels like.
He needs a family who will give him the time and space to decompress and earn his trust slowly, without pressure. In return, you will be rewarded with the unwavering devotion of a dog who appreciates every kindness shown to him. A home where he can continue his positive reinforcement training will help him blossom!
Are you ready to open your heart and home to this deserving survivor and witness his amazing transformation?

We are a non-profit dog rescue located in Clarksville, TN. Our founder and namesake, Mikaela, began fostering dogs in 2016 while serving in the United States Army because she has a life-long love for dogs. Because of her effort and hard work, she received the Military Outstanding Volunteer Service Medal (1, 2). In May 2022, Mikaela decided the dogs often-overlooked, such as those with medical or behavioral conditions, needed special attention and Mikaela’s Mutt Motel was made official.
Since our inception in 2022, we have taken in (and placed) over 250 Mutts. Because of our focus on behavioral and medical concerns, our biggest expense is the medical care we provide to each Mutt from heartworm testing and prevention to spay/neuter procedures. Additionally, we have undertaken heartworm treatments, TPLO surgeries, and ocular surgeries. If we did not have the continued support of our followers, then none of this would be possible.
