Rhino

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Rhino was found very skinny and all alone on the streets, without a microchip and first brought to a perrera in Mijas, where he received first aid and gained the first few kilos. Then Rhino joined Triple A family and is now waiting to find his forever family in the shelter. Rhino is a big wiggly boy, who loves to climb into your lap, and makes you sweat like a cowboy when you're trying to get him into his harness. Rhino is a physically big and strong boy, yes, and in the beginning he can pull a bit on the leash, when he finally gets out for his walk, but actually he walks really comfortable and pleasantly on the leash as soon as he gets his first energy out. Rhino loves all humans, and will cuddle everyone. He doesn't really comprehend his size and weight, especially now that he has recovered from being starved, so at the moment would be best if he could join a home without small children, not to crush them with his full-body cuddles. He of course loves snacks, and even though he does not yet know many tricks to impress you, he is ready to learn - hopefully you have patience, because this big boy has a thick head! Rhino likes friendly and social female dogs, even though he still needs experience and guidance on dog socialisations, as with his size and teenage energy, he can be too much for some dogs. Slowly we will introduce him to different dogs, so he learns bodylanguage, different energies and also boundaries of other dogs. He gets a bit nervous in the presence of other dominant big males. At the moment he would like to find a home as an only dog, who is provided regular controlled contact with other friendly, social dogs, or a home where already a playful and confident female is waiting for him. His shoulder height is 54cm. To adopt Rhino in Spain, a PPP license is required, which the shelter can help with. Rhino is also available for international adoptions.
