Introducing the incredible Val, affectionately known as Valentino! 🌟 This handsome fellow is a true testament to resilience and the power of love. Cast from a challenging past in a multi-dog hoarding situation in OKC, where he shared a tough start with over a dozen other pups, Val has emerged from the shadows with a spirit that will warm any heart! ❤️ When Val first arrived, he was understandably timid, avoiding touch, conversation, or even a kind glance. But hold on to your hearts because this remarkable little guy has worked his way through those fears! With the support of dedicated trainers and animal behaviorists (yep, even some loving folks like you!), Val has blossomed into a cuddly companion who adores gentle pets from those who earn his trust. 🥰 Val is not just charming; he’s also house and kennel trained! ✅ Talk about a bonus! And get this: Val thrives among his fellow dogs; they lift his spirits like nothing else! 🐕 He would absolutely love to have a furry sibling to play and grow with. Also, he’s totally feline-friendly! 🐱 As for humans, Val would do best with older, patient companions who can communicate with him gently as he learns to navigate this big new world. He isn’t quite ready for the chaos of little ones, so a calm environment filled with understanding souls is essential. 👧 To give Val the love-filled future he deserves, it’s essential to spend time with him first, allowing him to feel secure in your presence (that means a cozy foster situation!). Let him meet his potential new furry friends and gradually learn how to cuddle into your life. 😊 This sweet boy has so much love to give, and he’s waiting for someone like you to open your heart and your home. Can you feel that connection? Val is ready for his forever family, are you the one? 🥹🐾 Don’t forget: to make his dreams come true, apply to adopt Val through the Buddy App!
