About Dominic
Dominic is a smart, unique boy with an eye-catching blend of rich browns and blacks that reflects his Bullmastiff and German Shepherd heritage. He has enjoyed a fantastic life with his previous family, filled with love and affection. Unfortunately, Dominic is back at Safe Haven due to a resource guarding incident that occurred with a young child. As such, he will thrive best in a child-free home. His experience shows that he can exhibit reactivity toward other dogs, making him a better fit as the only pet in the household. Despite this, Dominic has been nothing but sweet and affectionate. His time at the shelter has confirmed that he remains gentle and friendly, showing no signs of aggression. Dominic recently passed his vet exam, and according to the trainer's evaluation, he just needs a home that understands patience, management, and consistent positive reinforcement. This kind-hearted boy is ready to start fresh with someone who believes in him. If you're an experienced dog owner ready to take on the rewarding journey of guiding Dominic, he could become your loyal companion for years to come. Ready to fall in love?
