About Fortuno

Meet the guy who thinks every human is his new best friend... and every tennis ball is the one (until he finds another one five seconds later). This sweet, respectful boy made his lobby debut by politely offering belly rub opportunities to anyone within reach. A true gentleman. Outside the kennel? A completely different vibe in the best way. Calm, affectionate, easy to handle, and happy to stick close for pets, kisses, and quality cuddle time. He starts off with a little burst of energy (understandable—shelter life isn’t exactly a spa day), but settles in quickly into a chill, easygoing companion. On leash, he’s a dream: no pulling, no chaos, just a nice walk with a boy who clearly knows how to "dog" in public. Now, let’s talk hobbies: -Tennis balls (plural, because choosing just one is unreasonable) -Sniffing every square inch of the yard like a tiny detective -Leaning into you like he’s known you his whole life -Gently accepting treats like the polite prince he is He’s more of an independent explorer around other dogs—curious when they pass by, but prefers doing his own thing in the yard. That said, he will try to say hello to his kennel neighbors (he’s social, just on his terms). And the moment that seals it? Kneel down, and he’ll come right over, tuck his head into your arm, and melt. After some playtime, he’ll settle beside you with his ball, ready for pets and belly rubs like it’s his full-time job. This boy was flagged as one of the pups really struggling in the shelter, but you wouldn’t know it once he’s outside. What he really needs is a place to decompress, a human to lean on (literally), and maybe a lifetime supply of tennis balls. If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate, slightly goofy, ball-obsessed best friend... he’s right here.
