About Zuko

Meet Zuko, a charming and striking 2.5-year-old Cane Corso mix who might just be the perfect addition to your home. Weighing in at around 120 pounds, he is a true show-stopper with his muscled physique and luscious floppy ears. Zuko is not just about looks; he has a personality that demands attention. He's crate-trained, housebroken, and knows all his basic commands. His obsession with fetch rivals that of ten Labrador Retrievers—be prepared for some serious play time! Zuko needs a home with a tall, sturdy fence and would thrive with another dog to engage in play. While he can be protective of his people, Zuko is generally friendly and loves to snuggle and receive butt scratches. He prefers a calm environment, so a home without small, rowdy children is ideal, although he gets along well with children in general. With his experience in professional training, he responds well to correction, making him a great companion for someone willing to give him the time and energy he deserves. Zuko comes neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on his vaccines. This delightful companion is ready to bring joy and spunk into your life. Think you could be the one for him?
