About Dusty (diego)
Meet Diego, the energetic 5-month-old Kelpie x Staghound mix pup with boundless enthusiasm for life. With his adorable floppy ears and playful demeanor, Diego steals the hearts of everyone he meets. From dawn till dusk, this little dynamo is always on the move, ready for adventure.
Diego's favorite pastime is playing fetch with his beloved toys, showcasing his impressive athleticism and keen intelligence. When he's not engaged in a spirited game of fetch, you can often find him lounging in his favorite spot-the shell poo in the yard, a quirky habit that adds to his charm.
This lovable pup has an infectious love for people and dogs alike. He adores making new friends and delights in socializing with both humans and furry companions. However, his exuberance sometimes gets the best of him, especially with kids, as he tends to jump in excitement-a behavior that's a work in progress as he undergoes training.
Diego's playful nature extends to his interactions with nature, as he happily chases butterflies around the yard, showcasing his playful spirit and zest for life. While he's a bundle of joy, Diego is still learning the ropes, particularly when it comes to toilet training. But with patience and consistent guidance, this sweet boy is sure to grow into a well-mannered and cherished member of any family.
