Tell us about yourself: I rescued Kyro on 30 September 2021 from a city shelter. He was going to be euthanized the next day. He is six years old and only weighed 34 pounds due to horrible abuse. He is now living on my farm and weighs 65 pounds. He is learning the socialization ropes and doing very well.

Howdy from Ohio.
Kyro and I are new to this forum. Looking for insight on him and his breed. I was told by a lady at the local agricultural store he was a really nice Dutchie. He is a rescue and is now at his ideal weight. He weighed 34lbs when I got him four months ago and now he’s at 75lbs. Any insight would be great. Thanks much.

Welcome!! He is a handsome devil for sure. Best advice without specific question - keep him busy (body and mind) and be kind.

It’s amazing how life works. Kyro, who needs CONSTANT attention and busy-ness, arrived shortly after I retired and was able to provide this for him. He’s a hoot..!
