Meet Tonto, the charming little dog who might just steal your heart away! This lovable fellow has a personality that’s as endearing as it is delightful. Tonto is a slow-burn kind of guy; he may take his sweet time warming up to you, but let me tell you, the wait is so worth it! 😍 Once he feels comfortable, he’ll shower you in affection and cuddles, making you laugh with his hilariously awkward zoomies. Picture this: one moment he’s racing around with those long, stilt-like legs, and the next, he’s curling up beside you for a long, peaceful nap. Can you say adorable? 🥰 Now, here's what makes Tonto a true gem: - He’s crate trained and an absolute dream! Not a peep during the night or day. - This little guy has mastered the art of being quiet; we honestly haven't heard him bark yet! - With a low-energy vibe, he’s perfectly content to chill, lounge, and nap. But don’t be fooled—he has whims of energy that will make you giggle when he zooms around! - He has a low-shed coat, making him a cuddle buddy with minimal mess. - Tonto is doing great with house training when he’s taken out regularly and he’s not a marker. 👍🏼 But wait, dear friends; let’s talk about what Tonto needs in his forever home. He’s a dog who cherishes his personal space. That means he doesn’t like feeling cornered or being picked up when he's comfortably nestled on the couch or relaxing in his crate. Respecting his boundaries will help him bloom into the loving companion he’s meant to be. 🌺 Tonto is kid-friendly, especially with dog-savvy older children aged 11 and up, who understand the importance of giving him space. However, he may not be the best fit for homes with younger kids who want to pick him up at every chance. When it comes to other dogs, Tonto is dog tolerant—not exactly the life of the party, but he gets along just fine. He does show a bit of resource guarding when it comes to bones, cozy spots on the couch, and the coveted lap of a human (can you blame him?). So, what does Tonto dream about in a home? A calm, understanding environment that appreciates a quieter dog and respects boundaries. If you’re in the market for a low-key, affectionate buddy who simply wants to feel safe and loved, then Tonto might just be the one! 💙 At 4 years old and weighing in at a perfect 12.8 lbs, he's ready to meet you! *Please note: All adopters must come to Colorado to adopt Tonto.
