My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

King Blanco expects to be treated like a king and requires the following:


Morning hugs and stretches

At least 30 minutes of tug of war per day

Lots of balls to chase after and Kongs to chew on

An area to run full speed

A window with a view

A 30 minute walk per day

If you must miss a day, that is fine, he is understanding.

In exchange, he is willing to offer a new family:


Unlimited cuddles

Unlimited kisses

Will never leave your side

Company while you watch TV

Help with the dishes

Learn new tricks

Eat all of those extra dog treats you have laying around

Generally be a good boy

If you are open to accepting King Blancos requests, he would be happy to have you as his new family! Hes happy to live in a house with other dogs. We would advise against young children as he doesnt understand his own strength. Older kids would get along well with him, he is very accepting and eager to please.


He learns very fast! He knows how to ring bells to ask to go outside and push a doorbell to ask to come back inside. He came to us with poor leash skills but his leash training has been going beautifully! He now looks up to you while on a walk and only pulls on the leash rarely. We are still working on his self control when he sees something super interesting but he has come leaps and bounds and is super eager to please his people, especially when there are treats involved.


Don't love his name? Change it. He can't hear it anyway, he won't care.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process is three-fold: submit an application, meet the pet, then arrange for us to do your in-home interview.
Adoption Fees:
Kittens: $60, Cats (1 year plus): $50, Puppies: $250, Adult Canines (1 to 6 years): $200, Seniors (7 years plus): $100 (unless otherwise specified). Adoption fees are not a tax-deductible donation as allowed by IRS regulations. Adoption fees help to offset the cost of the pet's care incurred by Coastal Pet Rescue, which are generally 2 to 3 times the adoption fee amount.
Some special circumstances may change the fee; see pet's listing for actual adoption fee.

All Coastal Pet Rescue pets are current on shots, microchipped* and spayed/neutered prior to adoption. Adopters are responsible for any shots that may be due after adoption (particularly for kittens and puppies that must have three rounds of shots to be protected).

Microchip:
CPR has implanted a microchip as part of the adoption process and the chip is included in the adoption fee. However, some chip companies require a registration fee varying from $9.99 to $19.99. The registration fees are the responsibility of the adopter and are NOT included in the CPR adoption fee. Adopters may add this cost to their adoption fee to have CPR register the chip on their behalf.

30 Days Pet Insurance:
As a Petfinder member, all adopters are entitled to a free 30 day insurance policy through PetFirst. Coastal Pet Rescue is not responsible for this policy. Adopters must call PetFirst’s toll-free number 855-710-7387 to activate the coverage. If adopters fail to call, the policy will not be activated.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Our pets all live in our homes, so adoption applications must be submitted for appointments to be made to see the pets. We also have them with us at our outdoor events, so view our "events" calendar on our website for those dates and locations.
