Description

Charming Chapo was picked up by another rescue last year in the Spring. The rescue that pulled him knew that this handsome guy was in desperate need of rescue support. Although they didn't have many options for him, they knew that if they kept him safe, they would be able to find a breed specific rescue that would be able to help Chapo move forward safely. Fortunately, they were able to provide Chapo with temporary placement where he thrived. Knowing that Chapo was a great dog but wasn't in the right situation to move forward, inquiries were sent out so that Chapo could transfer to a rescue with more options. When MAGSR had a few openings at the beginning of the year, our team stepped forward to offer this handsome guy the opportunity to find an incredible match that will love him for a lifetime. 

Chapo is a handsome boy with some good energy. A gentle soul, this boy is friendly but a little hesitant with new people and new situations. Having moved about so many times already, this sweetheart will need some time to decompress and settle into his forever home knowing that he will never need to look for a family again. True of the breed, Chapo will be most successful in an environment where structure, routine, and leadership are present. This will help him adjust to his forever home and develop the confidence he needs to meet with success. Training will go a long way with Chapo. He already knows several commands. However, continued training is critical as it will not only help Chapo create a healthy bond with his forever family, but it will also help him develop the skills needed to become a good canine citizen. It is highly evident that Chapo was socialized with people and other animals along his journey. However, we do not have any information about his life prior to his arrival in rescue. This boy is looking for time, patience, and a soft landing with the right family. Could that family be you?

Updates

Chapo has been a very welcome pleasure in his foster home! He's a friendly, playful pup who gets along well with his foster home's three resident dogs, that are large and small. Chapo is crate-trained and housebroken; he even walks well on a leash. He's not food aggressive and is learning commands quickly. He enjoys napping and relaxing with the foster family while they watch TV. Overall, Chapo is a sweet boy who thrives with daily mental and physical stimulation. He would do great in a home that can provide him with playtime, enrichment, and love!
