About Fitz

Fitz and his brother Luca take a bit to warm up, but a few treats and a calm attitude work wonders. Once they feel safe, they become cuddly and affectionate, sharing playful moments together and with other dogs. These pups can keep you entertained for hours but know when they need a break—they prefer to retreat to their shared crate to decompress when feeling overstimulated. Fitz and Luca would thrive in a home that values their roles as protectors, comic relief, and emotional supports. A spacious, secure backyard is on their wish list, and they are already trained to use a dog door. Ready to meet these delightful boys? Apply today!
