Story
Meet Winston, a dignified yet incredibly sweet 13-month-old Havanese mix who is ready to leave his past behind and find the loving forever home he truly deserves. Weighing in at just 21 lbs., this small, handsome boy with his soft black and tan coat is as charming as he is resilient. Rescued from a hoarding situation along with several other animals, Winston is now safely in foster care, where he is beginning to blossom. He will need to be placed in a home with a male adopter.Despite his difficult start, Winston has already shown what a well-mannered and gentle companion he can be. He gets along nicely with other dogs, making him a great addition to many types of households, although his history with cats remains a mystery. As you might expect, Winston will need time and patience to fully adjust to a new environment. Winston prefers a quiet home.Medium energy level, he will join you for walks around the neighborhood and then settle in for a cozy evening by your side. He is still working on his crate training but has already learned to master his house and leash training. He is a smart boy that aims to please. It is important to remember that although he is housetrained, accidents can still occur while adjusting to a new home environment. More than anything, Winston is searching for a safe, quiet, stable home where he can feel secure, cherished, and truly loved. If you are ready to open your heart and home to a deserving pup, Winston may be the perfect match you have been waiting for. * When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine.
