About
Hi, I’m Mario.
I’m seven years old. My old owners loved me, but had to leave me at home all day for work, which made me sad, so they decided to rehome me so I can be happier.
I’m a little bit nervous and wary at first, but I am very loving and will soon be cuddled up next to you on the sofa or rolling over for belly rubs.
I’m currently on a weight loss regime. I’m really fluffy which hides it well, but once you pick me up you’ll definitely find I'm a bit chunky. My foster mums have put me on some new food and I am slowly losing the pounds.
Foster mums say I'm a funny little man. They call me a truffle pig because I snort and grunt when I’m walking around and sniffing. I can be a little grumpy, especially when I’m tired or worried. As I begin to trust people, I get less grumpy. I’ve always been an only dog but don’t mind other dogs when I’m out and about. I could maybe live with another calm dog if we get along.
I like to lounge and sleep a lot. I’m getting more confident on walks each day. I can be left alone for a few hours and will just snooze, although I obviously prefer being with my people.
I’m fully house trained. I am a little bit rusty with some of my training cues, but I love treats and am getting back up to speed quickly. My old owners said I’m good with the groomers too, which is good considering I am so fluffy.
If you’re looking for a sweet, funny companion who just wants a cosy spot and a loving home, I might be the boy for you.
Get in touch and we can find out.
Lots of Love
Mario
