Story
Mako was taken in at 10 days old and bottle fed. He has always been a good boy. He is SUPER affectionate and exuberant! He loves children and other dogs, but as far as cats- we haven’t had any experience with him being around them. He grew up with my two children, and if not for my severe heart problems now- he wouldn’t ever have been listed on this site 😢😭 He truly is a blessing for someone who is looking for the most affectionate, cuddly, loving potato 🥔 on the planet!!! Now for the catch- - He is VERY strong and will pull on the leash. He needs someone strong enough to hold him if he sees another dog that he wants to play with. - He has a waterfowl allergy that can flare up if he consumes any type of food or treat containing waterfowl. - He is NOT neutered yet, but we felt it was safer to wait until he was over 2 years old (since it was not causing any aggression issues for him) to reduce cancer and health risks later in life.
