My personality

My story

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

Julian’s story is one of heartbreak and resilience.
He and his siblings were abandoned by their breeder as young pups and left to survive on the streets for over a year. The neighborhood became their lifeline, kind residents left out food and tried to help, and over time the dogs slowly learned to trust the people who kept them alive. Everyone knew these pups and hoped they would one day find safety and love.
Once animal control picked them up, we stepped in right away and brought Julian and his brother into our rescue. To no surprise, both boys tested positive for heartworms, but they’ve since completed treatment and are now healthy, safe, and ready for forever homes.

About Julian
Julian is an incredibly sweet, affectionate Velcro boy who loves being close to his people. He’s smart, eager to please, and already learning basic obedience. He walks nicely on a leash and is both crate-trained and house-trained. We estimate Julian to be around 1.5 – 2 years old.
He’s vocal in the cutest ways, he’ll let you know when he needs to go out or when he’s asking for attention. Julian has a calm, easygoing temperament and would do best in a home with a consistent routine, daily exercise, and mental enrichment.
He does well with friendly female dogs and has shown neutral behavior toward other dogs while at the shelter, though he hasn’t had full interactions due to his heartworm treatment recovery. Like most Dogos, he would do best in a home with the opposite sex. Because we don’t know his history with children, he’ll need a home without young kids.

Julian has survived the hardest chapter of his life. Now he just needs someone to give him the loving, secure home he’s been waiting for. Located in Port St Lucie, FL
