About Tutti Frutti

Say it: Tutti Frutti. The name alone sets the tone — this young Doberman/Pit mix carries that same easy cheer wherever he goes. At 9 months old, Tutti Frutti greets kids, adults, strangers, and other dogs with total enthusiasm, and most people feel the same about him. He showed up with his brother Van Gogh (yes, that’s his real name); they don’t have to be adopted together, but the sibling bond is strong and friendly. Tutti Frutti is still figuring things out — simple commands like sit and stay are works in progress, but he’s eager to learn and aims to please. Give him some structure, a treat, and a name tag, and watch him transform into the loyal, goofy companion every home needs. Tutti Frutti is looking for someone ready to guide him into adulthood and enjoy some serious fun along the way. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
