Aldo is around 10yrs old, calm & gentle, he is not happy in the refuge, it is no place for an older dog. He has been here for 4yrs!! He is in good health although he has the start of catarracts in one eye. Aldo listens very well, he knows the "sit" command. Good on the lead, it is a pleasure to go for a walk with this beautiful German shorthaired pointer. He only asks for hugs and attention. He needs a fenced garden & he is not good with chickens. Aldo will be a wonderful family pet.
