Russell's Story

Russell is a large-size 3-year-old Dogo Argentino mix who weighs 61 pounds. He is considered special needs because he is deaf, but it doesn't hinder him one bit! He's a good mix of playful and energetic, but also loves a comfy bed to nap and relax on. Russell has done well with other dogs at PCAS, though he can be protective of his toys and treats. He was tested for heartworms and Lyme and was negative for both. Russell will be neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated before leaving for his forever home.
