About Darwin

Darwin is a charming young Dalmatian, likely around 4 years old. He was found as a stray, living outdoors in a kennel while the search for his owners went on without success. Thankfully, our rescue stepped in to provide him a better future. Although he’s a bit timid at first, Darwin quickly warms up and shows his loving nature once he trusts his new family.

Darwin would thrive in a mature and energetic home that can commit time to his training and socialization. This gentle boy gets along with both dogs and children, making him a suitable addition to many families. Don’t miss out on the chance to give him the loving home he deserves.
