DESCRIPTION
Meet Lorenzo (ACCT-A-254955)!
Lorenzo is a huge fan of people and will lean his whole body into you to make sure he gets all the pets. With his soft, soulful eyes and relaxed ears, it's impossible not to fall in love with him. He is incredibly gentle when taking treats and is always looking to his handler for guidance.
While he is a total sweetheart with humans, Lorenzo can be a bit vocal when he sees other dogs through a fence, so he may prefer a home where he can be the center of attention or with a family ready to give him slow, managed introductions. If you're looking for a polite, affectionate, and low-key best friend, Lorenzo is ready to meet you!

Kennel Presentation: Laying in the bed when i approached. Had to make some kissy noises for him to wake up and come to the front. Soft eyes, ears to the side and mid tail.
Leash Skills: Easy to leash and came right out of the kennel. Loose leash walked through the kennels and outside. Handler oriented and if there was any pressure on the leash he would slow down.
Sociability: Leaned into all handling with a loose body, soft eyes, ears relaxed to the side and mid tail loosely wagging. Went right up to someone leaning into them for pets. Takes treats gently.

ABOUT: GOLDEN RETRIEVER DOG BREED
The Golden Retriever is a friendly, intelligent, and gentle dog breed known for its golden colored, water repellent coat. They are highly sociable and great with families, children, and other pets, making them popular as therapy and service dogs. With a love for outdoor activities and water, Golden Retrievers excel in various dog sports like agility and obedience. They require regular exercise, mental stimulation, and grooming to maintain their health and happiness. Overall, the Golden Retriever is a versatile and beloved companion dog breed.
The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
