Meet Dillo!
Dillo is the cutest little pup around! Dillo's mom was found as a stray next to a busy freeway with her friend. Both dogs were rescued and a day later, Momma Abilene felt safe enough to deliver our Texas litter!
Dillo was born on 3/19/26 and is 6 weeks old (as of 4/30/26) and is a male. Dillo will be ready for adoption at 12 weeks old once he's fully vaccinated and microchipped. Dillo currently weighs about 4 pounds with room to grow! We estimate he will grow to be a medium - large sized pup. Momma dog weighs about 60 pounds, so this is totally a guess based off of our vet's recommendations.
Dillo will be adopted out on a neuter contract and neutered between 6 months to 1 year of age.
Dillo is such a young pup that he is friendly with everyone he meets! (dogs, cats & kids). Dillo's foster mom describes him as a bundle of joy and the sweetest little pup! Dillo currently gets along great with everyone! He enjoys belly rubs from his foster parents and playing with his doggie foster siblings in the yard.
Dillo is full of personality and a total puppy. He loves to romp around and play with his doggie foster siblings, but also loves to climb in your lap for snuggles. We think he would love another dog in the home to show him the ropes, but this is not necessary,
Dillo would love a fully fenced yard or an active family as he (and most puppies) have puppy energy he'll need to burn off. All of our puppies under the age of 1 year old are strongly encouraged to attend some form of puppy obedience classes / training with their new adoptive family.
Dillo is not quite potty trained at this point and we'll be looking for a patient family who will continue to work with him on potty training. He is catching on SO quickly and we know he'll be there in no time! His foster family is doing their best to help him become fully potty trained and we're sure he'll make progress towards being fully potty trained by the time he transports to his new family! Dillo is still working on crate training. He currently does well in a baby gated off room, and we're slowly introducing him to the crate.
