Male Dog, Terrier
Terrier / Basset Hound / Mixed
Description:
Hi Everyone, Meet Caillou! 4 years old. 40lbs. 100% his own dog. Originally a NYC pup, he is now in Pittsburgh and embracing the life as a yinzer in the suburbs. Caillou is a Heinz 57 special — pit bull, Jack Russell Terrier, Basset Hound, and Vizsla — which basically means he inherited every ounce of energy, curiosity, and stubbornness those breeds have to offer. He sniffs everything, notices everything, and has the kind of brain that needs a job. He will absolutely steal your socks so maybe a laundry attendant could be a good job for him? But he’s also the dog who greets you by leaning his whole body into your legs like a cat, plays with his paws splayed wide like a happy little weirdo. He has a solid training foundation, loves structure, and genuinely enjoys working with people who give clear direction. He’s potty trained, settles well at home, and has off leash hiking experience. He just needs the right person to take him the rest of the way. Caillou is looking for: • Adults only home • Only pet — no other dogs, no small animals • Someone with real dog experience (not your first rodeo) • A person who enjoys training and wants to keep building on what he knows • Secure yard and an active lifestyleSince Caillou has been returned before due to no fault of his own, his next future adopter will be gifted free training to ensure his successful integration to his new family.Caillou has been in rescue since he was a puppy and deserves that special someone who wants to open up their home and continue to build something beautiful together. Could that be you? He is available for adoption at pawsacrosspittsburgh.com/adopt Paws Across Pittsburgh, PA 15144 KL#16182
