Vencenzo

Like Tony Soprano once said... "You don't have to be the sad clown, laughing on the outside, and crying on the inside... you'll laugh and smile on both sides, once you find your person." :) Ciao! My name... is Vencenzo! Venny, for short. I'm a 4-year-old, 60-ish lb, bully-breed boy with a silvery brindled coat straight from the paintbrush of da Vinci himself. I'm shy at first, but after a few minutes of love I am sweet-as-Spumoni and ready to melt into your lap like the finest mozzarella. I'm a ball-chasing "fajool" when it's playtime, too! My favorite hobbies are taste-testing pasta shapes (I am an expert at these), supervising the kitchen when the sunday gravy is simmering, and curling up as the best little wooden spoon in the old country, when it's time to relax on the couch after play time with my foster famiglia :) With my rare coat and Versace-esque features, you may think I'm just a guido... but I'm not simply a face fit for a Michelangelo sculpture; I'm a genius, too! I am flawlessly kennel-trained, potty-trained, and leash-trained. I also know several commands thanks to my friends at MMK9, like "sit", "off", "come", "down", "place" and many more! I am an obedient orzo ready to show off my skills and make my future family proud. I "cannoli" have eyes, for you! I am feline-friendly, have excellent house manners, and I'm good with polite dogs - I just need to get to know them first! I live with several foster siblings and love them! No rowdy goombah's from the Shore for me, please... I could also do well as your ravi-only pup! I love kiddos too of all shapes and sizes, as long as they are sturdy and savvy bambini's! My fur-ever future will be a house-setting with a privacy-fenced yard, with a family that will show me all the good things this big new world has been saving for me, while I waited so patiently to be rescued and to be safe. Like Paulie Walnuts once said... Whattaya hear? Whattaya say, fur-ever?! Will you take a "pizza" my heart and let me be the olive to your oil, per sempre? When in Rome... adopt a roman - because I promise to be worth every "penne" :) Apply to adopt me, today! - - - - - - - - - - My adoption fee is $150 and includes my spay/neuter, vaccinations, wellness exam, heartworm test, and microchip!
