Dante 2

My story

He’s got a look that will make you melt! Hi there! My name is Dante, and I’m an 8-year-old neutered male Malinois mix weighing 52 pounds. I was one of the lucky pups rescued by ELSR, and I’m so grateful for this second chance at life! Even though I’m blind and working through some anxiety, I’m determined to live life to the fullest. I have a few med needs: Eating Hills Prescription Diet Gastrointestinal Biome Digestive/Fiber Care 27.5lb Bag (~$132.00 based on market value and where purchased). Taking Carprofen (~$20.00 for a months supply. Price depends on market value and where purchased) to help manage pain and taking Dasuquin joint supplement (~$42.00 for 3 months supply, price varies on market value and where purchased) to help joint pain. I’m a sweet and laid-back boy who loves structure and boundaries to help me thrive. I can be playful and active when you’re up for it, but I’m also happy to quietly entertain myself with toys when you need some downtime. My favorite things? Squeaky toys, chewy treats, and a good jaw rub—those are the best! I adore people (especially men!) and enjoy having visitors over. When it comes to training, I’ve got a solid start. I’m crate-trained and do well on a leash. Potty training is also going well, but I do need frequent trips outside as I cant hold it for very long. But hey, I’m incredibly smart and love to learn, so I know I’ll get there! I’m even picking up commands like “in,” “out,” “down,” “right,” and “left,” and I respond well to my name and positive reinforcement. I think I’d do best in a calm, structured home. I’d be okay with laid-back doggy siblings, and kiddos too. UI am not sure about cats but I dont have a prey drive. I’m independent enough to hang out on my own for parts of the day, but I’d much prefer having you around. Do we sound like a match? If so, my adoption fee is $150 and that includes spaying/neutering, shots, and microchip.  If you want to take me home, please fill out the form on the website here: https://theanimalpad.org/adoption-application/.
