Mario is a charming young Flat-Coated Retriever who will surely win you over! At just a year old, he was found as a stray but maintains a cheerful spirit despite his past. Initially, he can be a bit shy with new people, so older children would be ideal to help him adjust comfortably. With some patience, you'll see his playful side shine when he's settled in. This dog is friendly with other dogs, having shown good behavior in the shelter, although he hasn't had direct introductions with them yet. Mario is still working on his leash manners and could use some gentle training in that area. He has a gentle and affectionate demeanor, ready to play once he feels secure. If you're prepared to open your home to this sweet boy, apply to meet him soon!
