My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Dez! This sweet boy is 9.5 years old and a Bully mix. He was adopted from us 5 years old and unfortunately some how ended up as a stray in Illinois. We have no idea how he ended up there or why the people that adopted him no longer have him. Thankfully he was microchipped, so we were contacted and made arrangements to get him back to us. He is such a sweet dog and you’d never guess he is older. He is full of energy and such a happy dog. We haven’t had him around other dogs yet, but in the past he has been selective. He does need a home with no cats. He just had a dental and he is neutered, current on vaccines, and microchipped.
