My story

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

Age: ~2 Years Old
Past Life: Former Stray Personality: Sweet, Very Shy, and Quietly Observant

If you have a quiet home and a heart for the "underdogs," Donatelo might be your perfect match. This handsome boy hasn't had the easiest start to life as a stray, and as a result, he finds the big, wide world a bit overwhelming right now.

Why Donatelo is Worth the Wait:
The "Slow and Steady" Companion: Donatelo is super shy and finds new faces a little bit scary at first. He isn't the type to jump into your arms immediately, but his true heart shines once he knows he’s safe.

A Listener at Heart: Because he’s so quiet, he is the ultimate companion for someone who enjoys a peaceful environment. He’ll watch you with those soulful eyes, just waiting for a sign that it’s okay to trust.

Deeply Loyal: For a dog like Donatelo, a bond isn't given—it's earned. Once you’ve earned it, you have a friend for life who will cherish your presence above all else.

Donatelo’s Ideal Home:
Donatelo is looking for a sanctuary. He needs a family that understands patience is a love language. His perfect humans will be happy to let him set the pace, giving him the time he needs to get to know you without any pressure to be the life of the party.
