Story
Draco is not a Spotty Dog. We are just posting as a courtesy. Contact Sam at the email below.
Draco, a Doberman-German Shepherd mix, is estimated to be six years old. He was adopted in June 2020 and we celebrate his birthday on February 14. We don’t know the history of him before his adoption but he was found roaming the streets of Houston, TX. Draco is great with kids, loves walks, rides in the car and knows basic commands – sit, down, off, in your house (his crate) and he will sit at the door before we let him out. He is fully potty-trained, doesn’t mark and sleeps through the night (in his crate – we tried to let him go loose but he prefers his house with is blankie and his baby). He loves his toys and chews and loves his people.
Draco has been a great member of our family, being a great big brother to our pugs and several foster dogs but lately he has not been getting along with our pug. They used to “squabble” here and there, when food was involved (he and the other two pugs have ALWAYS been fed in their houses). But this past week he and the pug have just not see eye to eye and at 93 pounds, Draco is winning the battles. He has gone after our “middle pug” three times and injured him pretty badly, giving him a large gash on his head and nearly hitting his eye. In Draco’s defense, the pug has a HUGE Napoleon complex and will not back down when Draco challenges him.
I can’t risk my small kids getting in between it. There are no triggers when Draco decides he needs to be the dominant one. This last time my youngest got scratched by Draco’s paw and I fear that it could be his teeth.
This is the most difficult decision we have ever had to make regarding our fur babies but I can’t risk the kids or the pugs getting severely injured. Draco has always been a wonderful dog, but we feel he needs to be the only animal in the house so he can get all the attention
Draco is up to date on shots, neutere, has no allergies and is a good boy at the vet. He loves all kids but older kids would be best as he forgets he is 93 pounds and jumps. He is also not good with cats or small animals as he is prey-driven by nature. He has gotten a mouse in our house and two birds in our yard. But he’s smart, dedicated and a good boy. He loves nothing more than to snuggle on the love seat with his blanket while we watch TV. He also loves to go in the kids’ small pool and splash around.
If you are interested in adding him to your home, please contact Sam at Samantha.Lowd@gmail.com.
