Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Zero is a handsome young dog who is looking for a patient, experienced guardian to help him navigate the world. Zero is not the kind of dog who will instantly rush up to lick a stranger's face. Instead, he prefers to take his time, observe from a safe distance, and decide when he feels comfortable.While Zero is initially cautious around new people, the reward for your patience is truly special. Once Zero decides you are part of his trusted inner circle, his whole demeanor changes and he becomes a deeply loyal, devoted friend. He is a dog who values quality over quantity when it comes to his relationships.When it comes to other dogs, Zero is still figuring out the rules of engagement. His play style can best be described as awkward, and he does not quite know how to interact or read canine social cues appropriately just yet. Because of this, he needs a home with an experienced handler who can provide him with structured, positive situations where he can safely learn how to socialize. With the right guidance and a guardian who understands how to manage and advocate for a dog with his specific vibe, Zero has all the potential to blossom into a wonderful, well-adjusted companion.

Cairo

Pit Bull Terrier Siberian Husky

Male, Young

Novato, CA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Cairo is an exuberant 8-month-old dog who seems to love life at full speed. He is very social, loves people, and is especially great with other dogs. In fact, his dog-dog social skills may be his best quality. He is a happy, enthusiastic young dog who brings a lot of energy, fun, and personality wherever he goes.Cairo is also smart, busy, and still learning how to settle. He can get anxious, has high arousal, and often needs help winding down instead of figuring it out on his own. The good news is that he is still very young, and with structure, training, and management, he has heaps of potential. Bully sticks help him relax, and he will do best with adopters who are ready to help him build those settling skills.He would likely thrive in an active home with another dog to help burn off energy and give him an outlet for all that social enthusiasm. Cairo is a great match for someone who enjoys training, understands adolescent dogs, and wants a joyful, dog-loving companion who is full of heart and ready to keep learning. ***ADOPTION FEE SPONSORED*** Primary Color: Black Brindle Secondary Color: White Weight: 47.2 Age: 0yrs 10mths 0wks
