Tio - Boxer and Cattle Dog Dog for Adoption in Lake Wylie, South Carolina

Approx 5 months old and 20 pounds, Tio is a sweet, affectionate, gentle, friendly little guy who just wants to be loved. He's also neutered and vaccinated!

And he’s proving every day what an amazing dog he is. He is currently enjoying life on a farm, where he has indoor and outdoor access and has learned to use the doggie door. He’s sharing his space—and even his food—beautifully with a pack of approximately 20 large dogs. No drama. No problems. He simply fits in.

He’s learned to love his crate, is learning his manners, and already knows to sit for treats. He’s playful, social, adaptable, and incredibly affectionate.

But here’s what really makes him special: He has a beautiful little soul.
He’s the kind of dog who doesn’t demand your attention—he earns it. The kind who will quietly work his way into your heart and then make you wonder how you ever lived without him.

This little boy is ready for the part of his story where someone chooses him—and chooses him forever. If you’re looking for a puppy who is affectionate, social, incredibly adaptable, eager to learn, and just plain special...you may have just found him. Tio is waiting for his person.

Some dogs arrive at shelters because they’ve been failed. Others arrive because life simply didn’t work out. We don’t know which story brought this little guy there. But we do know this: his story should not end there.
