He loves to play and snuggle with other animals, once properly adapted, and is a huge sweetheart.
Why he/she was brought to the rescue: Uno was abandoned by his former family in Georgia. When a neighbor saw him wandering in her yard, she called Animal Control and informed them she thought it was her neighbor’s dog. Upon follow-up, the neighbors confirmed it was their dog, but they never reclaimed him or answered the phone again. Waldo’s Rescue Pen brought him up to Manhattan to save him from being euthanized.
