Vinny

My story

Vinny is a 2-year-old, 60-pound Dutch Shepherd(ish) mix with the heart of a teddy bear and the vertical leap of a caffeinated kangaroo. Don’t let his bounce fool you—he’s all about love, hugs, and maybe just a little bit of face-licking if you let him get close enough.This velcro dog thrives on affection. He hugs (yes, hugs), melts into your arms like a toddler in a dog suit, and if nothing’s going on? He’s perfectly content to chill and entertain himself with the air. He recently met some new people and was so polite we thought he might start offering them refreshments.Vinny is not a fan of cats—he says they’re mysterious and unpredictable and he’s not about that life.He may be able to live with another dog and, while we’d like to do a meet before ruling out kids, he’s been incredibly gentle and loving in all his interactions so far.Basically, Vinny is the perfect combo of sweet, silly, and snuggly. He’s the whole package—if the package came wrapped in fur and tried to hug you.Ready to add a little bounce and a lot of love to your life? Come meet Vinny.
