Vinnie is a sweet, sensitive soul looking for a calm and patient forever home. With both inside and outside access, he thrives in a secure environment with solid fencing to keep him safe. Vinnie has led a sheltered life, so the big wide world can feel a little overwhelming at times. He needs a family who will let him settle in at his own pace, offering gentle encouragement and lots of love. Vinnie is best suited to a quieter household with children aged 15 and up. He can be anxious and unsure, especially around men, so slow, positive introductions are essential. A confident female dog companion could help him build confidence and learn the ropes of being a dog in the world. He’s a true “Velcro boy” – happiest when he’s close to his people. With ongoing training, socialisation, and a whole lot of patience, Vinnie will blossom into a loyal and loving companion. Are you the calm, understanding family Vinnie’s been waiting for?
