Bio:
One look into Feliz’s soulful, honey-colored eyes is all it takes to fall head over paws in love.
Feliz is a loving, cuddly shepherd mix who spent the first 4 years of his life on the streets of a poor village in Guatemala. His foster mom crossed paths with him while on vacation and had no choice but to rescue him after hearing his heartbreaking cries when he lost sight of her. Feliz was desperate for a loving family and he returns the love he receives tenfold, not to mention he’s the best cuddler. Despite going through a lot of changes in the past few months, he’s settling into a nice routine and is incredibly smart and trainable. In fact, he graduated from a month-long intensive training school where he learned all his basic commands and walks like a dream on the leash.
Feliz will follow you around the house from room to room flopping down for a snooze while you do your thing. If you’re lucky, you’ll hear him let out a cute moan or groan every time he gets up to stretch. He’ll be your best friend, adventure buddy, and trusted protector. Inside he couldn’t be more mellow, he loves to nap and doesn’t have a single bad habit. Give him a bone or bully stick to chew on and you’ll make his whole week. Outside he really comes alive and is sporty— he’d make an excellent pet for someone who’s active and enjoys spending time outdoors. He’s been known to climb trees at the park with cat-like agility.
Feliz’s trainer described him as one of the most “special personalities” he’s seen in his 10 years of dog training. Part of that special quality is that he’s strong willed and dominant, so he’ll thrive with someone who’s owned pets before and will maintain his training and routine. He has strong foundational training and is food motivated/eager to please so it’s just about maintaining consistency. Although he has a foster brother he loves very much, Feliz would do best in a home where he’s the only dog. He wants and deserves to be the center of your world 🙂
