RAMBO

This handsome boy was shy when he arrived at the shelter. But he's really warmed up and learned to shine with the help of kind people taking time to shower him with love. INSIGHTS FROM RAMBO'S FRIENDS: Rambo is so so sweet! He loves to get petted and just goes from person to person to soak up love. He cares much more about affection than treats. We have fostered this lovely dog for a week. He was a little shut down when he came to the shelter but has been blooming very well in our home. He is happy and confident when he is outside and loves to do 'zoomies' in our yard. Also loves to take walks and explore the world. Inside he is more timid. He rarely barks and can be independent in the house. He also wants to be petting and cuddled in the house. He has a very gentle nature to him. Very mellow and loving. He loves lots of attention and pets. His previous life may have been a bit rough but he just wants to be loved now. He needs someone to show him how to be a dog though. He does not know any commands or how to play tug or fetch. His previous family spoke Spanish and we have tried those commands but I don’t think anyone ever took the time to teach him. He would make a great dog for a family or even an older couple that does not want to deal with the energy of some dogs. He seems to love everyone! Meet Rambo, a dog who defines the word 'loving.' After a few days of settling in, Rambo’s initial shyness completely melted away, revealing an engaged, happy boy who just wants to be where his people are. Rambo is loving to people, kids, other friendly dogs and loves walks. He gets excited to play chase the tennis ball outside and has good energy in our fenced-in backyard. We have fostered several adoptable dogs but Rambo is the gentlest and most loving of them all. For the first time we invited him on the bed and couch, as he is so appreciative of being part of the family while snuggling. He would do well with another dog looking for a play friend and loves kids. One trainable area encompasses that he can happily jump up when initially greeting someone, but we have seen steady improvement and have almost mastered down. He is very trainable. We taught him come and sit in a half hour and he nicely follows basic hand signals. Rambo is a wonderful dog, loves everyone, and would be a great addition to any dog-loving family. Rambo is a wonderful dog who will thrive with a family with kids as he loves people and adores kids! He is a stubborn dog but given patience and time, we will absolutely do as you ask. I do not feel that he is a dog who would run away, but if he did, it would be to go make friends with more people! He is not super food-motivated (no resource guarding) and is actually scared of squeak toys. When he was out in the yard at his foster's house, he did love to play keep away with his plastic frisbee as a fun game for him! He will often times go chase after a tennis ball as well when he is in puppy mode, but we are still learning how to bring the ball back. He will get along with other dogs but would prefer if they are not super high energy like him. On his trial, he did not try to correct any other dog when they got to be too much, he just laid down or attempted to paw at them; he is still building up his confidence. He is not a fan of being left alone, and when he was on his trial with me, he also whined when someone left the room but another person was still there. He was curious about my cat, but never attempted to lunge or chase, but also never got the chance. He did back away once when she hissed at him. He does have prey drive outside for bunnies and squirrels though! And he does pull, which is nice when you're going up a hill! But he can definitely be trained to walk with a loose-leash over time.
