Winston

Well, hello there, potential new family! My name’s Winston, but you can call me “Your Royal Highness” – or, you know, just Winston works too. I may be a senior at 8 years young, but don't let that fool ya—I’ve still got a lot of pep in these paws! Now, I’ve been through a few ups and downs in my life, including this thing called heartworm. I don’t recommend it, but hey, I’m a survivor! And if that doesn’t make me deserving of being treated like a prince, I don’t know what will. Today I am doing great and that is all that matters!<br/><br/>I was a shy and scared pup when I first came to the rescue in 2018, but I’ve learned the ropes. Yep, I know how to dog now! I love playing with my canine pals—especially when there’s water involved. Got a pool? Awesome. Got mud? Even better! I mean, who doesn’t love a good splash and a little mess, right?<br/><br/>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!
