Our Pepe is the best! A sweetheart, smart... he will be loyal, a true companion dog...
Pepe is a sweet soul, very intelligent, affectionate and a very good character! He loves treats, walks and toys. He plays alone with his doll or lies on the dirt when the weather is nice and rubs his back. He is not pulling to the walks and he is perfect in the car! He needs a home with people who will love him, respect him and help him adapt to his new environment, as he has never lived in a house. At the shelter he needs time to get to know people that he doesnt know. To the walk outside of the shelter, he is ok with humans passing by as long they are not very close to him, he doesn’t accept motorbikes passing by very close to him and he is freezing when he sees another dog and might bark, because he is afraid. To the walk outside of shelter he needs more work to not care about the other dogs passing by, but he has already made progress with training. In the shelter he was in the same area with a female dog Misty in the past for a long time. We think he better go to a house either with no other dogs, or with a calm female, but he should be introduced slowly and by experienced people.
Pepe has struggled with his health. He has a large swelling high up on his front right leg which causes him discomfort at times, when e.g. he wants to find a comfortable place to lie down and it shows a little in his walk. Back in 2020, a benign tumor was removed from this spot and the diagnosis of the biopsy was collagenous acrochordon. Unfortunately, over the years it slowly began to swell again, but it is no longer possible to do a new surgery in the same place. From now on all we can do is if we see him in pain, we will give him some painkiller. We are looking for the human who will open his heart and his home and will offer him a better life, with warmth, with his own bed, with walks and lots of caresses.
