My story

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

**EVENT DEPOSIT PENDING**

Adoptable in: MA, RI, NH, CT, and VT

Good with dogs: Yes
Good with cats: Unknown, likely yes
Good with kids: Yes
Crate trained: Yes
House Trained: Working on it

All puppy, all the time, Mentos will play until he drops! Preferably, he is hoping that drop ends up with a snuggle in the arms of his people!

Mentos should thrive in any home ready for a puppy. He loves all dogs and reads their cues well when it gets a little rough. Although he has not encountered a cat, he would likely be fine as he is young and teachable.

While he settles in eventually in the crate, it take a little coaxing via treats. Mentos is working on both his leash walking and his house training; while they are coming along well, he will need continued focus and guidance in his new home. While he is teething and chewing like a typical puppy, he has responded well to correction with redirection to a toy or chew bone.

The perfect package of playful and snuggly, Mentos will be a fantastic companion for life!

Please Note: All dogs currently available for adoption are posted on our website. If you cannot find a particular dog on our website, he/she may be on a temporary foster hold.

More about this rescue

Our mission at Last Hope K9 Rescue is to save every possible dog we can from being euthanized within high-volume kill shelters throughout the U.S.

As the literal “last hope” of nearly every animal we serve, we work tirelessly to place each one within a stable, loving environment that can act as either their forever home, or the gateway to their forever home. We also strive to ensure that all of our adoptions and foster placements are the optimal fit for everyone involved, including our dogs. This leads to our second goal: enriching human lives through canine companionship. To us, you can’t have one without the other.

Lastly, we promote animal welfare by lobbying important initiatives that both protect and give voice to the voiceless. By fostering an environment of collaboration with other organizations that share our goals, and working together instead of in competition, we find that we accomplish more.
