Meet DIO

Are you in search of a gentle, loving companion to brighten your days? Look no further because Dio might just be the perfect match for you! Dio can be a little shy and sensitive when first meeting new people, but he warms up quickly! Due to his initial shyness, any kids in the home should be 10+ and able to go slow with him at first. Once he's comfortable, he adores cuddling up beside you, soaking up all the pets and scratches he can get. Dio has a heart of gold and is eager to form a deep bond with his new family. Dio does have one quirk: he's afraid of other dogs. This sweet boy prefers the company of humans and would thrive in a home where he can be the only furry friend. Because of this, we think Dio would not do well in an apartment setting where he may be overexposed to other dogs on walks. Dio would benefit from proper training and socialization around other dogs to boost his confidence. We just adore Dio and we know you will too! What I Need In a Home:* Kids 10+ mandatory* Apartments/condos not recommended* No other dogs at this time - afraid
