My personality

My story

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

Dominic is currently in RI and looking for a 'furever' home!

If you are interested in adopting this dog please complete the adoption application at www.rhodehomerescue.org/adoption-form to become a pre-approved adopter.

If you were already approved through Rhode Home Rescue within the last 6 months, contact us today!

Be sure to check our Facebook page "Rhode Home Rescue" for details on upcoming events and other announcements.

Dominic would be great as an only dog but could very well live with other dogs as long as an adopter is willing to put in the time and training for them to be successful! With Dominic's limited exposure to other dogs while in the shelter he missed out on learning dog cues during play and interaction. He however does incredible on walks with other dogs. He walks well on the leash, is housetrained and sleeps well in the crate at night. During the day he stays in the crate where it takes some time for him to settle but he will settle eventually. His fosters will give him a frozen Kong treat for him to have and that has helped. He loves to cuddle and meet new people. He has the 'wiggle butt' down to a science and it is really exciting to see just how happy he is meeting new people...men, women, kids he loves them all! Dominic also really really loves toys!! Hard ones to chew on or soft ones to destroy he is always walking around with a toy in his mouth tail wagging!! Dominic can be a little mouthy when he gets overly excited but there's no ill intent about it! He also loves treats and takes them gently.
