Aw, he's adorable!

He may be a little older, but he has a heart full of love and plenty of life left to share with a caring family.

As you can see, Diego is a gentle and affectionate dog. He may not have the same energy levels as a puppy, but he more than makes up for it with his sweet and calm disposition. This makes him the perfect companion for someone looking for a more relaxed and easygoing furry friend.

Aside from his skin and dental issues, which are currently being taken care of, he is crate-trained, as well as house-trained and well-behaved.

You can even hold him like a baby!

All he wants is someone who loves him unconditionally and gives him cuddles. He's likely to be very loyal and devoted to his new family, and he'll appreciate the love and care they provide, as senior dogs like Diego often form deep bonds with their humans.

That being said, adopting a senior dog like Diego has its perks.

You'll skip the challenging puppy stages, and you'll know what you're getting in terms of size, temperament, and behavior. Plus, you'll be providing a loving home to a dog in his golden years who may have experienced trauma prior, which is a rewarding experience.
