About Diesel

Meet Diesel! This big, happy boy is incredibly friendly and enjoys being around people. Diesel thrives with an adopter who feels comfortable handling a larger dog. Although he won't be the one to curl up in your lap, he’s truly content relaxing at your feet, whether at home or outside in the yard. Diesel needs a home without small pets due to his high prey drive. He has previously cohabitated with another dog and could get along with dogs again, provided there are proper introductions. Diesel has also lived with children and was noted to behave well. His foster family observed that he prefers not to be cuddled or petted during the evenings while he settles down, making a home with older children who understand the importance of respecting his space ideal for him. If you're in search of a devoted companion who's always ready for adventure but also appreciates quiet moments next to you, Diesel might be exactly the dog you're looking for!
