About Mongo

Mongo is now available for adoption! This sweet boy has a playful, puppy-like face and is estimated to be around 6 years old, weighing in at 35 lbs. His foster describes him as part kangaroo, part bulldozer, and part very sweet boy. He loves to rest his big head on your shoulder, bringing instant comfort. Mongo is crate trained and mostly potty trained, although he's so excited to be outside at times that he might forget to go. Energetic and full of spirit, he thrives on daily exercise and playtime. Mongo walks well on a leash and adapts fine to a 4' fence. He does need slow introductions to new people and can be a bit anxious during transitions. A patient adopter who understands the 3-3-3 rule will help him adjust to his new home. Mongo gets along well with both cats and dogs, and he would benefit from having another energetic dog to play with. He loves playing tug, and though he hasn't been around kids, a quieter household may suit him best. Chew toys help him relax, and he’s very treat-motivated, which makes training easier. His smart nature means he will thrive with someone who understands high-energy dogs with a little anxiety. This lovable pup is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm negative, dewormed, and has had recent blood work. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
