Vinny is a very happy guy who loves everyone he meets! He is about two years old and is very much a pup at heart. He loves to play and loves meeting new people and dogs!  While Vinny does get excited when he meets new people, he does calm down pretty quickly and will lay in his bed and relax after he’s done greeting them. Vinny is so resilient, he is incredibly sweet and happy even though he spent the last four months in an overcrowded shelter. He came to us very underweight, but is looking better everyday. He is about 60 pounds now, but still needs to gain more weight. He is working on potty training and manners, and has made great strides in both areas.  He is almost 100% with his potty training now. He is a smart dog, and is very motivated by food, which makes training easier! 
Because Vinny can get so excited when meeting new people, we are recommending he lives in a home with kids over the age of 10.

The adoption fee of $300 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family. Although we do the best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can make no guarantee. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED!
