My personality

My story

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

🐾 Meet Kai – From Park Chains to Cuddles & Calm 💙

Once known as Hargrove, this beautiful blue-nose pittie pup was found tied to a tree in a Bronx park—abandoned, frightened, and alone. His life nearly ended at the NYACC shelter, but fate had other plans. A kind foster opened their heart and home, and from that moment, Kai’s story began to change.

At first, Kai was fearful and unsure of the world. But with patience, love, and consistency, he slowly began to trust again—and now? He’s a happy go-lucky pup, who just wants to be close to his people.

Kai is incredibly smart and knows all his commands: place, sit, no, stay, off, and more! He’s also crate trained, and while he might whine a little when you leave, he settles down and patiently waits for your return—tail wagging when you walk through the door. 💕

He notices other dogs and even cats, but his heart really belongs to you. Kai thrives with human companionship, eager to please, always ready with a soft gaze or a snuggle. He may take a moment to warm up to new people, but once he trusts you, he’s your loyal cuddle bug for life.

If you’re looking for a calm and sweet companion who’s been through the worst and still loves with all his heart—Kai is your guy.
✨ Give this brave boy the forever home he’s been waiting for. He’s got a heart full of love and a lifetime of loyalty to offer. 🐶💙

Additional adoption info

We do not charge an adoption fee. We do require proof of pet insurance payment made and will do a 6 month check to make sure it continues for your rescue pet. If the rescue requires ongoing training for behavior with a professional trainer, we will require proof of purchase for that as well. Please note that we will also schedule visits throughout the year to do safety checks for the rescue animal and help give you tips for any issues that arises.
