My story

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

We adopted Dorito from a shelter in Florida in 2022. They said he came in as a stray, and they thought he was close to 1 year old. He is extremely cuddly and friendly. He loves meeting all people and other animals (he prefers to say hi to people first). He is a very fast learner and is extremely food motivated. He will try to eat whatever smells like food, but he has gotten a little better the older he gets. This does mean he has eaten a wide variety of stuff he shouldn’t have, but he has never once had any issues that required a vet. It’s a running joke that nothing will harm this dog. He always has been very well behaved at the vet and is always in great health. He communicates well when he needs to go out. He loves to play tug of war, chase balls and sticks, and be chased by other dogs. He is an aggressive player, but has never harmed another dog or human. He is patient with young kids. He is a happy, cuddly, healthy dog. He just needs more training and would love more attention.
