Description
Meet Rhino - Your New Best Friend! At 8 years old and 100 pounds, this gentle giant has perfected the art of being the best companion you could ask for, he has a true heart of gold. He's the kind of dog who is just as happy joining you for an adventure as he is relaxing by your side at home. He has an incredible ability to match your energy, whether you're ready to play or simply unwind, he's right there with you. His favorite pastime? Chasing a ball! And if you turn on a garden hose, get ready to see his playful side come to life. Few things make him happier than splashing around in the water with a big grin on his face. He also thinks ice cubes are the greatest treats ever, making snack time both simple and fun. This sweet boy truly loves everyone he meets. He gets along wonderfully with people, children, (probably better with children over 10 due to his size), other dogs, cats, chickens, and even ducks. His calm, easygoing nature makes him an exceptional fit for just about any family. He enjoys going for car rides and will happily hop in with just a little assistance. Taking him along will be a breeze since he walks well on the leash. He doesn't require a fenced yard, making him a great match for families with a variety of living situations, as long as he gets the love and exercise he deserves. One of his best qualities is how well he listens—he's attentive, eager to please, and a joy to have around. Rhino doesn't love a crate but he is such a gentleman at home he doesn't need one when left alone. He's house trained and will go out when everyone goes outside. Like many dogs, he has had some recurring ear infections, but they're now mostly under control. His future family should simply be prepared to continue basic preventative ear care, such as occasional ear drops, which he accepts without any fuss. If you're looking for a loyal, affectionate, well-mannered companion who has plenty of love left to give, this handsome boy is ready to fill your home with joy, laughter, and unconditional love. He's been patiently waiting for his forever family—and he can't wait to meet you. Rhino is fostered outside of Charlotte NC.
