A Texas native. Texas wasn't the best to him. He was born in the forest and did his best to survive. Polo, his brother Marco, and buddy Scotty lived in the forest with a large pack (around 40 dogs) and we saved the 3 we could. Thankfully a hard working street feeder got rescue for all his other littermates and buddies. <br/><br/>Polo was the most undersocialized of the 3 we recieved. He was nervous around new people and fearful. Thankfully he learned quickly we were here to be kind to him and he now approaches gently and lovingly. <br/><br/> Polo has hip issues resulting in the need of FHO surgeries on both hips which will resolve his issues. His first surgery is 5/1 and approximately one month later his other hip will be repaired and he will be GOOD TO GO!<br/><br/>Polo will make a wonderful pet. He is one of my favorites and it has been a pleasure to see him become trusting towards me and see his personality shine
