Bingo (Benefactor Dog) - Standard Poodle and Golden Retriever Dog for Adoption in New Orleans, Louisiana

Meet Bingo

Bingo is a 3 year old, 65 pound Parti Doodle with a gentle heart and a story that makes you root for him.

Before rescue, Bingo had very little socialization with people. When Animal Control picked him up, he was terrified and completely shut down. He simply didn't understand that people could be safe.

With time and patience, though, Bingo has started to blossom. He enjoys his evening walks, is becoming more comfortable with the world around him, and continues to make progress every day.

Bingo needs a calm, patient home where he can build trust at his own pace. A quiet household without a lot of chaos would be ideal - just a soft bed, a kind hand, and people willing to give him time. Someone who works from home would be a huge plus but not a necessity.

He is very food motivated, which should help make training and confidence building a little easier. A secure, fully fenced yard is required for this timid boy.

Bingo enjoys dogs around his size or larger, but if there is another dog in the home, a calmer, easygoing companion would be the best fit. A rambunctious or very high energy dog may be overwhelming for him.

No small dogs or cats. Older, respectful children would be best.

Bingo is neutered, up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, crate trained, and fully potty trained.

He doesn't need a perfect home. He just needs the home that's perfect for him.
