About Deo

Deo is a charming guy who found his way to us after being surrendered due to his owner’s declining health. Initially, he arrived a bit anxious and unsure of people, likely from not receiving the care he deserved for a while. Although he gets nervous during vet visits, Deo is incredibly sweet with everyone else. He enjoys snuggling in laps, showering you with kisses, and soaking up affection. He’s also playful and loves a good game of fetch, though he has a funny habit of thinking you should do the fetching! This lovely boy is seeking a gentle, loving forever home where he can feel safe and truly integrated into the family. Deo gets along well with older children, men, and women, making him a fantastic addition to a kind household. Are you the one he’s been waiting for?
