About dogs named Nacho

The following are 30 profiles of dogs named Nacho from our database of 93 dogs with the name Nacho.

• “Nacho is a Belgian Malinois mix with a big personality and a lot of energy. He is reactive to strangers, children, and other animals, so he is not a dog that can safely interact with unknown people or pets right away. Because of this, I am looking for private spaces where he can run, explore, and decompress without unexpected encounters. That said, once Nacho knows and trusts someone, he is incredibly sweet, affectionate, and loyal. He loves spending time with his people and enjoys having space to sniff, play, and be active. He is still working on his confidence and training, so having a secure environment is very important for him. If you have a fully fenced, private space with minimal distractions, Nacho would be very grateful for the opportunity to enjoy it safely.“

  — Ashley X.

• “Nacho is a Spanish Galgo, rescued from Spain where they're bred and tortured to hunt rabbits. At the end of hunting season every year, up to 100K dogs are killed/abandoned when no longer needed to hunt. Yet they are gentle, loving, smart, calm, wonderful dogs. As a result, Nacho is afraid of men (most hunters were men), is reactive with other dogs, and can bolt/jump a fence if spooked. But at home, he is the sweetest, goofiest noodle pony.“

  — Kimberly A.

• “I like long sprints thru tall grass and woods. My favorite foods are off the counter“

  — emma? X.

• “My sweet sweet boy Nacho. He wouldn’t hurt a fly, but boy will he run it down and chase it until the wings fell off. Very submissive, very annoying once comfortable, never bites but growls when aggravated. He’s a sore loser too, if a dog is bigger or faster than him he’ll grumble in frustration. He has a new brother Ranger who tests his limits everyday and we are on the hunt for friends to desensitize Ranger for Nachos sake. Nacho can recall, and stay put to allow for easy greetings. Ranger is a different story. We look forward to zoomies!“

  — Mary C.

• “I’m a good boi. You can find me at the pantry, waiting patiently for any treat or on the couch snoozing. I don’t like water but mum and dad like taking me to the pool for exercise 🫠“

  — Deleted P.

• “My name is Nacho. I live here at Chico's Place. I want to playfully invite dogs, and their people to visit my fully fenced play space.“

  — Carla S.

• “Nacho is as sweet as can be. She loves love and has so much love to give. She loves playing fetch, tug and running around. She’s a sass and a half and is always eager to do training of some sort. She’s so eager to please.“

  — Stephanie D.

• “Nacho is an adult Jack Russell/Beagle mix. He does not get along well with other dogs but loves people and cats.“

  — Haley G.

• “I am a extremely energetic little boy even now that Im 7. I would love to play with dogs but I afraid so to hide it i present myself with a bit of agressivity to let them know Im a big guy. No one can sniff my butt or run after me. I sniff butts and run after others , thats the only way I want to play. I know Im a bit bossy...“

  — Mylène C.
