My story

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

Meet Rintintin 🐾🖤
5.5 years old • Male • Black Labrador

Rintintin is a sweet, loyal, and affectionate Black Lab with a heart full of love! At 5.5 years old, he came to us from a partner rescue in Mexico, traveling with several other dogs who are now adoptable and in our care. Rintintin is currently thriving in our co-housing program, doing well with other dogs, and cats can be tested upon request.

Why Rintintin is special:

Loyal, affectionate, and gentle

Confident and friendly, adaptable to multi-dog environments with proper introductions

Perfect for a family looking for a loving, devoted companion

Good to know:
🏷️ If an attribute tag isn’t listed, it doesn’t mean he doesn’t have that trait—it just means we haven’t seen or confirmed it yet.

Rintintin is looking for a home that can give him love, attention, and companionship—and in return, he’ll offer endless loyalty, affection, and charm. 💕
