My story

What a HAPPY DOG!!! Two words sum up this happy boy and that is ENERGY and JOY! He is so thrilled to be rescued he wants to love and hug on every human he sees. That being said! This fella has been in shelter/prison for so long that he doesn't have the good manners of a dog who has had training. He'll need to continue to be trained to not jump up and to give polite space.  He has met other medium sized dogs and doesn't pay them much attention because he's so used to playing with his sister, Edwina. He's had a bath and wasn't a fan until I used a soothing voice and touch.  He eats well! He's had healthy bowel movements! The potty training is WAY behind because of his shelter existence to putty where you live (and you don't have to hold it) so we've started working on putting him in a smaller space for some time to help his body learn how to hold it and then we take him outside and give him LOTZA praise! VERY QUIET in a kennel/cage when it gets covered with a blanket. He's pretty quiet so far through the night as well.  All in all, this is a great COlorado buddy to do all the things with an active family who wants happy dog love in their life! He's going to be a GREAT DOG! ##2442198##

If you have any questions or would like to adopt MARIO, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
