About Enzo — The Sweetest

Meet Enzo — The Sweetest! This four-month-old, 17-pound darling brings joy everywhere he goes. A mix of Doberman Pinscher and possibly English Pointer, he has a sweet and docile nature, though he might be a bit shy at first. Enzo gets along marvelously with other dogs, and he’d love to have a furry sibling who can help him learn the ropes. Curious about cats, he shows interest without any intention of causing trouble, making him an adaptable companion in a multi-pet household. Though gentle, Enzo still has all the playful energy typical of a puppy, always eager to explore and learn, especially when treats are involved. He’s already crate-trained and house-trained, and currently mastering leash-walking. Rescued in Texas, Enzo is looking for a foster-to-adopt home in the northern states for a seamless transition. Transport is scheduled every other weekend, with pickups in Winchester, VA, East Hartford, CT, and Brattleboro, VT. There’s no pressure in this process. If you and Enzo aren’t a perfect match after a trial period, his rescue will find the right home for him. He’s just waiting for that special person to come along. Ready to meet your sweet new friend?
