Adoption Pending! 2 year old European bred Nero, a black genius, comes to us all the way from Italy! He truly is 100% European and 100% goofball!! ;) He loves to play!!! Nero is registered in Italy and has champion lines in his genealogy. This very handsome and very large boy was purchased from a Doberman breeder in Italy and owned by a military family that was stationed there.  They recently came back to the states, but with all the changes it was decided Nero needed a home that was better suited for him. Nero is all natural as it is illegal to dock and crop in Italy, but he is absolutely the most gorgeous Doberman. Nero grew up with kids but will need a home with older kids only. He also was best pals with a male Shepard. Nero loves to go to dog parks, play with other dogs and be with people. He will need a home that is willing to give him a job, play with him daily, take him for walks, or runs even better, and hone in on his training skills. Nero does know some basic obedience commands, is crate and house trained and will make a great companion for an active home. Nero is neutered, current on vaccine, chipped and ready to find his forever home. We are also in need of a foster home for Nero. Please apply if interested in helping or adopting Nero.

In Italian, “nero” means “black”  in Finnish nero means “genius”. In Japanese, it means “to sleep“. Nero is our black Genius!
