✨🐶 Let’s give a warm, joyful welcome to the fabulous Blanco! This charming one-year-old double merle weighs in at a lovely 30 lbs of love and loyalty. 🌟 Blanco is not just any ordinary dog; he’s a delightful bundle of potential, seeking a home that believes in the beauty of structure, consistency, and a sprinkle of patience! While he has an exuberant playful side that brings a smile to everyone around him, he thrives best when expectations are clear and routines are a delightful dance. 💃 Imagine taking daily walks with Blanco, seeing him settle comfortably in his crate (after a little vocal warm-up, of course!), and lighting up like a Christmas tree at meal time. He’s a foodie at heart, highly motivated to learn as he continues to work on his impulse control, like not jumping up on excited friends and mastering appropriate chewing. With a bit of consistency and redirection, Blanco is ready to shine! 🌈✨ Now, it’s important to know that our adorable Blanco is deaf, which makes him extra special! 🦮 He communicates beautifully with hand signals, gentle physical cues, and calm interactions. While he is currently prescribed trazodone to help manage a dash of anxiety, his future family should embrace ongoing behavioral support and partner closely with a veterinarian. ❤️ Let’s chat about being a double merle! This incredible little soul comes with a background that means adopting him comes with a responsibility to provide ongoing veterinary care and embrace training methods that adapt to his unique needs. Believe it or not, adopting a double merle is a commitment to patience, advocacy, and lifelong support, helping him thrive in a world that may seem overwhelming at times. 💪 But don’t fret! Blanco is not difficult; he’s simply different! 🥰 In the right environment, with understanding and a little guidance, he’ll blossom into a deeply loyal companion who forges an unbreakable bond with his people. Imagine all the kisses and cuddles waiting for you! 🥳 Ready to share your life with this sweet boy? 🏡 You must apply to adopt Blanco *through the Buddy App* to give him the loving home he so deserves!
