My story

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

Wowzers, Karl is going to be a big boy! He is estimated to be about 8 months old and weighs 74 pounds right now. Here are a few nice facts about him:

A goof ball
Playful
Very engaged with his handler
Loves to lean into you
Walks nice on leash
Loves soft toys, will fetch and return to you
Can entertain himself
Knows a solid sit
Wants to please you
Is very responsive and looking for leadership
Loves other dogs and would make a great playmate
Friendly to everyone he meets
Needs a home where any children are at least 13 years old.

Karl came to the rescue extremely underweight and in very poor condition and he showed some observed food bowl guarding. He went right into a foster home and after training, building a bond and gaining weight, he is no longer guarding his bowl. His adopter will need to continue to work on this with him though. It will be very important due to Karl’s breed and size that his adopter understands the need to establish themselves as the leader. In his foster home he had zero accidents and seems to be able to hold it for extended periods, such a good boy.

If you are interested in Karl and are at least 21 years old, please come to our kennel during business hours, make an appointment, or fill out an application at k9stray.com and an adoption counselor will be in touch. We look forward to helping you find your new best friend!

*Please check your lease agreements for breed/weight restrictions prior to applying. We also do not do cat testing, so we do not know how a dog will do with cats. Not all dogs are available to go home on the same day you first meet.*
