Lorenzo

Meet Lorenzo<br/><br/>Lorenzo is a 2-year-old, 13-pound Chihuahua mix searching for a very special home.<br/><br/>Lorenzo hasn't had the easiest start in life, but despite his challenges, he has worked incredibly hard and made tremendous progress in foster care. He is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, and recently had a dental cleaning where he lost several teeth. He also has allergies and does best on a hydrolyzed protein diet.<br/><br/>Lorenzo is a smart, well-trained little dog who loves being included in daily life. He knows commands such as sit and come, walks nicely on leash, enjoys car rides, and absolutely loves playing with other small dogs. In fact, a home with another well-adjusted small dog could be a great fit for him.<br/><br/>Lorenzo is looking for an experienced adopter who understands fearful dogs and behavior management. He has a history of biting when frightened, startled, or suddenly awakened. While he has completed extensive training and has learned many coping skills, his future family must be committed to continuing the management and structure that helps him feel safe and successful.<br/><br/>Because of his history, Lorenzo needs: • An adult-only home (or one without young children)<br/>• No cats<br/>• A calm, predictable environment<br/>• Separate feeding areas if other dogs are present due to resource guarding around food<br/>• An adopter willing to respect his boundaries and continue building his confidence<br/><br/>The people who know Lorenzo best will tell you that beneath his fears is an incredibly loyal dog. Once he trusts you, he becomes a devoted companion who wants nothing more than to curl up in your lap, shower you with affection, and be by your side. He truly wants to please and thrives with patience, consistency, and understanding.<br/><br/>Lorenzo isn't the right dog for everyone, but for the right person, he will be an incredibly rewarding companion.<br/><br/>If you're interested in giving Lorenzo the forever home he deserves, please fill out a Statement of Interest.<br/><br/>#AdoptLorenzo #AdoptDontShop #RescueDog #SpecialNeedsDog #ForeverHomeWanted #SecondChances
