Adoption Pending! Romeo is a 2–4-year-old, male Blue Doberman. He was in pretty rough shape when the rescue took him in, but with good care, Romeo is now thriving. Romeo is the sweetest dog, friendly with everyone he meets, goofy, and loves attention and belly rubs. Romeo has a very calm disposition and may make a great therapy dog! A Gentle Giant at 90 pounds. Romeo does well with his foster’s small, female dog. Romeo has been found to be hypothyroid and will need daily low-cost medication. Romeo has a high prey drive for chipmunks and squirrels, so he would be best in a home with no small animals or cats, but he will keep your vegetable gardens clear of any varmints. Romeo is house-trained, crate trained, neutered, fully vaccinated, micro-chipped. He will make one lucky family a great companion. Romeo is ready to find his forever home. Please apply if you are interested in giving this handsome guy a forever home!
