Story
Who would have thought someone could keep this little guy chained up, outside, with little to no interaction?
Well, that’s how we found him.
Palomo was a small puppy when the owners got him, then decided he was getting bigger, and they didn’t want to deal with it, so outside on a chain he went. This is how Palomo has lived the last few months of his life. On a chain with just the basic necessities to survive; food tossed out, water bowl with algae in it and something to lay under that is considered shelter.
Palomo is about 6 months old and weighs approximately 13 lbs. We do not believe he is getting any bigger.
Palomo means Dove in Spanish – while we did not want his name to stay with him as it’s what the previous owners named him, he does answer to it, so we decided it would not be fair for him to learn a whole new name on top of all of the other changes also.
Despite everything he has been through in his short life, this boy is so sweet and just wants to love and be loved.
He is very much a puppy still – he loves to baby talked to and play. He gets super excited and will start hopping around and yipping in happiness.
Palomo is working on house training and crate training – he is not fully there yet, but when he has lived on a chain most of his life, this is very expected. So please understand he will need someone with patience on this.
He loves other dogs and is getting used to the inside cats!
We cannot guarantee he is hypoallergenic as we do not know what he is mixed with, but he has minimal shedding.
Everything is very new to him – He is such a curious boy but is loving the inside life now.
Palomo is working on his leash training, but he definitely gets very excited easily.
An ideal home would be one that understands he does need some consistent training and lots of love. He is still a puppy and needs exercise to get that puppy energy out. Any family would be lucky to have this little guy!
Palomo is fixed (spayed/neutered), heart worm negative, current on age-appropriate vaccinations, current on flea/tick and heart worm prevention, microchipped, current on de-wormer, and will receive a clean bill of health from a licensed veterinarian prior to transport.
