Prieto

This dog is available to meet by appointment only.

Prieto is a 3-year-old shepsky with a sensitive heart. This sweetie wants connection but needs time, patience, and consistency to feel safe. In a calm home, he may look very different than he does in the shelter environment.

On walks, Prieto can be wary of passing people and sudden movements, sometimes zig-zagging as he processes his surroundings. He startles easily but takes treats gently and allows basic handling. He will do well with an experienced adopter who can provide clear structure and predictable routines.

Prieto has been uncomfortable meeting other dogs at the shelter, though he previously lived with another dog. He would be best in a home as a solo dog, or with an appropriately matched dog friend.

If you're ready to go slow and help a sensitive dog build confidence at his own pace, Prieto has the potential to grow into a deeply loyal and rewarding companion. Please submit an adoption questionnaire to meet him.
