02 Dog of the Month: Dumbo

This medium-sized young man is 2 years old and has lots of energy. He likes to play but can be a bit aggressive with other male dogs, although he gets on well with female dogs, people and kids. Dumbo is sterilised and vaccinated and just needs a family of his own. Could you be the one to give him the time and attention he needs? If you think you might be the one, please contact the shelter at 084 752 5255 for English or 086 913 8701 for Thai or contact@carefordogs.org.
