Draco is a young, male medium mix breed. He is an affectionate dog with a house trained demeanor. He has been altered and his vaccinations are up to date. Currently residing in Winthrop, MA, he is looking for a nurturing home where he can flourish. Although he prefers a family unit without young children, Draco will thrive with someone who can offer him daily routines and positive reinforcement.

About URGENT Draco

Draco is a charming one-year-old male mix weighing in at 51 pounds. His unique appearance features a debonair mustache and appealing markings that make him quite the character. Unfortunately, he hasn't had the chance to enjoy the comforts of a forever home and is eager for a fresh start. This young dog needs an experienced owner who enjoys an active lifestyle and can provide him with the guidance he so desperately requires. He will thrive as the only pet in a small family setting, where he can receive daily enrichment and exercise. Training will help him adjust to his new life, so some back-to-basics reinforcement is essential. Keep in mind that Draco does not get along with young children or cats. Draco’s journey hasn’t been easy; originally, he was taken in when his family moved, but what was meant to be a temporary arrangement turned into a sad case of abandonment. While he has been cared for by a compassionate family, the stress of their bustling home has caused him to act out. He truly deserves a loving environment where he can be nurtured. Ready to meet him?
