He was found as a stray — uncertain and reserved — but in foster, his sweet personality is slowly blooming. He’ll often sit nearby just to feel close to you, and once trust is built, he will lean in for affection with the softest little nose nudges. He gets especially excited when his favourite people come home, bounding around like a baby giraffe before settling down into one of his many beloved nap spots. Dio has made real progress with visitors too. While he’s still cautious, he will approach more confidently when other dogs are around to show him the way. If someone new enters the room unexpectedly, he may give a gentle growl or bark — not with aggression, but with uncertainty. He’s the kind of dog who thrives when given space to watch and process things in his own time. 📏 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝘂𝗺 𝘀𝗶𝘇𝗲, 𝗲𝘀𝘁. 𝟯 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝗹𝗱 🐕 𝗦𝗲𝗴𝘂𝗴𝗶𝗼 𝗜𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗶𝘅 🩺 𝗡𝗲𝘂𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱, 𝘃𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱, 𝗺𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗱, 𝗯𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗱-𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿 🏡 𝗛𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗲-𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗱, 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗱𝘀 🚶 𝗪𝗮𝗹𝗸𝘀 𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗼𝗻 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱, 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 🐾 𝗚𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗱𝗼𝗴𝘀 🚫🐱 𝗡𝗼𝘁 𝘀𝘂𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗰𝗮𝘁𝘀 👧 𝗧𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗳𝘂𝗹, 𝗱𝗼𝗴-𝘀𝗮𝘃𝘃𝘆 𝗴𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘀 & 𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗿𝘀 – 𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗮𝘁 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝘀 He would do best in a calm adult home or with older, understanding teens. He enjoys a peaceful space, regular walks, and the reassurance of familiar routines.
