daddio

Daddio is a senior gentleman (paperwork from Animal Control says he is 8 years old as of September 2026)—but don’t let his age fool you! This sweet boy has a whole lot of puppy left in him.

When we first met Daddio at Animal Control, all the other dogs were barking their heads off. But Daddio just sat quietly in his kennel, looking out with the saddest eyes. He seemed almost invisible among all the noise.

Then he came to us...and what a transformation!

Daddio is incredibly sweet, affectionate, and full of life. He bounds around the play yard like a puppy, enjoying every opportunity to stretch his legs and soak up the attention he deserves. It’s almost as if he knows he’s finally safe and can let his personality shine.

When Daddio arrived, he was absolutely filthy—so dirty that it was hard not to wonder if he had ever experienced a proper bath. After getting cleaned up, he seemed like a completely different dog. We can only imagine how much better he must have felt having all that dirt and grime washed away.

Now Daddio is discovering something even better: what it feels like to be loved. He has so much sweetness to give and is making up for lost time one happy tail wag, one zoom around the yard, and one loving interaction at a time.

Daddio may be an older gentleman, but his heart is young, his spirit is playful, and he is ready for the chapter he should have had all along—a safe, loving forever home where he can finally be someone’s very special boy. He's going to make a great companion for a loving family.
