My story

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

Please contact Nancy Anderson (nancya@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.sweet boy ISO fresh start and love!

KRATOS NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!!

Name: Kratos      Best Guess for Breed: Terrier/Shepherd mix

Best Guess for Age:   3 years 11 months as of April 2024        SEX: Male

Approximate Weight:  44.4 lbs

Gets Along With:   Kratos does well with other dogs. We haven't seen him with cats but he can be tested. Due to his shy personality, we do not recommend him for a home with children under the age of 12.

Currently Living at:  DC area foster home

Special adoption considerations:   Kratos is from a hoarding/cruelty situation, and was very shy at rescue. Because Kratos is shy, he needs to go to a home with a confident, welcoming resident dog. Due to his shy personality, we do not recommend him for a home with children under the age of 12.

Kratos is Looking For:  A loving home that delivers all the sweet things his rescuers whispered in his ear.... 'You're safe now, sweet boy. The life you deserve starts now. You get lots of love, quality kibble, a cushy dog bed - and a warm lap if you'd like too. You're safe now, sweet boy.' 

Kratos was rescued from a hoarding/cruelty case and landed in a massive south Texas shelter that routinely has 1200-1500 animals in their care; his chances of being adopted in that area are, well, low to nil. Once he arrives in the DC area, he likely will be nervous in new environments. He is eager to get his own humans - ones who get that he might need extra support during his adjustment and give him all the love and patience he needs. And ones who take him for sniffy walks and all those adventures he's been missing out on - he's in his prime and has lost time to make up for! And what do his humans they get in return? An incredibly sweet and loving dog with an enormous stockpile of adoring gazes and loyal companionship to offer the humans in his new chapter.  

What do you say? Will you help him write it?

What My Foster Says About Me:   Kratos is working to settle into his foster home after coming from a very difficult living situation. We're giving him the time and patience he needs to decompress and work on his confidence and fears! Kratos prefers his crate and finds it the safest place to be, and he's working on establishing trust with his humans and getting comfortable in our house. He's very curious about our two dogs and we hope they will help him come out of his shell and blossom into a sweet and curious dog!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The adoption process begins when you submit an adoption application either online or at an adoption event. The individual responsible for the dog you are interested in adopting - a position we call the “adoption coordinator” - will then set up a time to discuss your application over the telephone. The adoption coordinator will check your vet reference to make sure all current and past pets were kept up-to-date with their shots and medical care. The adoption coordinator will also set up a home visit with one of our trained volunteers. That individual will come to your home to ensure that it is a safe environment, to confirm that everyone in the home is on board with adopting a dog, and to discuss any other questions you may have about dog adoption!

Go meet their pets

Our adoption events are held each weekend. A schedule of times and locations can be found at www.luckydoganimalrescue.org.
