About Enzo

Enzo is a brave, athletic dog with a playful streak that defies his age. Though he's about five and a half years old, his curiosity and energy make him seem much younger. He thrives on forming strong bonds and is fiercely loyal and protective toward those he cares about. You'll notice how friendly he is with new friends, both human and canine, and how easily he settles into family life. Structure is important for Enzo—he's strong-willed and sometimes gets over-excited, especially during a spirited game of fetch or playtime in the yard. If your home can offer a good mix of physical outlets and mental stimulation, he'll fit right in. He's housetrained and up to date on vaccines, ready for a new best friend. Enzo has experience with children and other dogs and handles both with enthusiasm and care. Born on December 28, Enzo is a Capricorn—and true to that sign, he's reliable, steadfast, and loves having a purpose. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
