Diesel's Story

Meet Diesel. This handsome boy is 2 years old, and very strong on the leash; he will need some training on how to walk with you and not pull you the whole time (This could be from having all his pint up energy, this could be corrected after he is out of the shelter and able to run and play more). He loves to do zoomies, so he will need a home where he can get out and run and play. He absolutely LOVES to play with toys. He did great with his dog test (leashes are left on to give us access to a quick grab if needed), but we did notice that he did not want to share his toys with her. Even after everything he has been through, he loves everyone he meets, which is awesome. We have not cat tested him yet. If you are interested in meeting this handsome boy, please give us a call at 804-520-9397 Ext 5
