​                                                             Nero
 

At only about 8 months old, Nero has already survived more than most dogs ever should.

​

He was dumped in the tiny mountain community of Forest Falls—a place that has sadly become a dumping ground for unwanted dogs. For days, Nero survived on his own until community members earned his trust and were finally able to slip a leash over his head and bring him to safety.

​

Nero is a sweet, gentle puppy who loves being with people. He gets along well with cats, kids, and other dogs, making him an easy companion for many different families.

​

His DNA test shows just how unique he is: 29% American Staffordshire Terrier, 21% German Shepherd Dog, 19% Boxer, 12% American Pit Bull Terrier, 4% Dogue de Bordeaux, 3% Bullmastiff, 3% Chow Chow, 2% American Bulldog, 2% Neapolitan Mastiff, 2% Siberian Husky, 1% Saarloos Wolfdog, 1% Carolina Dog, and 1% American Cocker Spaniel.

​

Nero is playful, goofy, affectionate, and incredibly loyal. He's eager to please, learns quickly, and is ready for a family that will continue his training and help him build on the great foundation he already has.

​

At around 58 pounds, Nero is already full grown, so what you see is what you'll get—a fun-loving companion who's ready for his next chapter.

​

​Nero is neutered, up to date on vaccinations and microchipped. His adoption donation is $200.
