About Pinto

Pinto is a 3-year-old, energetic dog who loves being around people. Having recently transitioned to indoor life, thanks to his former family, he is now house trained and ready for a loving home. His previous life as an outside dog means he’ll thrive in a structured environment that helps him build confidence. Pinto's friendly nature makes him a social butterfly; he’s great with other dogs and cats, and he is quite the attention seeker. While he hasn't lived with young children, he may do well with kids 5 and older, although his lively personality can be overwhelming for very small ones. Pinto adores squeaky and chew toys, and his crate training means he should be crated when left alone. This playful pup is looking for someone who can provide the love and guidance he needs to become a cherished member of the family. If you have the time and heart to give him the attention he craves, Pinto promises to be an incredibly devoted companion. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
