My story

Meet Serno, a tenderhearted pup with a story of quiet courage. Serno came from a difficult start — rescued from a hoarding situation with around 50 dogs — and spent his early days competing for food and comfort. When he first arrived, he was frightened of everything and unsure how to trust.In his foster home, Serno has made incredible progress. He now loves soft beds, squeaky toys, and gentle playtime. His tail wags come a little easier these days, and he’s learning that people bring love, not fear. His journey has been remarkable, and he continues to grow braver every day.Serno still needs a patient, understanding home ready to continue his potty training, leash training, and socialization. He’s learning quickly but will thrive best with continued encouragement and stability.We believe that Serno could benefit from being in a house with another dog, or his brother Pierre to help teach him all things about being a dog.

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