Theodore Dogo Argentino Tampa, FL

*New Intake* Theodore was one for the 4 OKC puppies saved after being dumped at a pet store. He is now with his foster for decompression and assessment. He is 10 months old. He is very shy and nervous and will need a family that understands he is trying his best! Please apply for Theodore!

Dogos are a wonderful breed but we urge anyone interested to dig in and do a lot of research before deciding if they are a good fit for your home. They require a lot of attention and training with them never ends! Boundaries must be enforced and they often need reminders as they push past boundaires you set! Dogos are loving, kind and gentle but don't mistake that for weakness because they are equally powerful and intense as well! Everyone in the home must be on board with having a dogo and play a major role in their daily routines and training. Yes it is work, but the rewards are ten-fold! Lazy homes don't work for dogos as they need stimulation, exercise, and lots of attention too during their younger years. Our goal in rescue is to be as transparent as we can about each and every dog plus make sure new families really understand the needs of a dogo!
