Meet Pongo! 🎉 This delightful 6-year-old Dalmatian blend tips the scales at 60 pounds of pure love. You know, they say Dalmatians are loyal companions, and let me tell you—Pongo takes that to another level! This cuddly, quirky fellow has a heart as striking as his spots! 💖 Pongo’s favorite pastime? Curling up on the couch and soaking up the love from his favorite humans! 🛋️ He’s the kind of dog who waltzes around with his beloved stuffed toys, ready to bring joy to anyone who crosses his path. Sure, he might be a bit uncertain when faced with new sounds or unfamiliar faces, but with just a sprinkle of patience and a gentle touch, his sweet personality will shine brighter than any star! ✨ What makes Pongo tick? Well, he adores those cozy moments on the couch, the thrill of tossing around his toys, and the snug bliss that follows a good play session. After a round of frolicking in the yard, he loves nothing more than snuggling in close to his people. Honestly, if snuggles were an Olympic sport, Pongo would take home the gold medal! 🥇❤️ Now, let’s talk about manners! Pongo is house trained (as long as someone lets him out on the regular), and he’s got a solid understanding of commands like sit, lay down, stay, and come. 🚶‍♂️ He walks beautifully on a leash, though he likes to announce his presence with the bark of a self-proclaimed neighborhood watch dog when passing by other canines! 🐕 That’s just his way of saying, “Hey, look at me!” Health-wise, Pongo is a superstar! He’s microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, and neutered. He might be a little sensitive about his nails being trimmed, but regular baths and a bit of TLC will keep him looking and feeling fabulous! 💅✨ Pongo does manage some anxiety and has a history of occasional itchy skin. Don't worry; with Apoquel and the right support, that will be handled like a pro! When it comes to other animals, Pongo thrives alongside calm, similar-sized dogs. Small pups? Not so much. 🐩 He wouldn't be the best buddy for cats either! You see, he prefers to strut his stuff and have space around him. In terms of children, Pongo would be happiest in a child-free home or one with calm, dog-savvy teens who respect his need for space. With the right crew around him, Pongo can truly relax and show off that sweet side! 🥰 Pongo shines the brightest in a single-family home with a fenced yard where he can explore to his heart’s content. 🌳 He’s not a fan of confinement, so a family that values his freedom will help him feel secure. The ideal match? Adults who appreciate his quirks and understand his sensitivities. With love and plenty of playtime, Pongo blossoms beautifully! 🌺 This lovable guy may have his anxious moments, but don’t let that fool you; he’s never shown aggression. With patience and a sprinkle of reassurance, Pongo is ready to become the most delightful, quirky friend you could ask for! 🤗 Ready to open your heart and home to this delightful companion?
