My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

 



Meet King!

King is a stunning 2-year-old black hound with sleek, shiny fur and the most striking eyes you'll ever see. Weighing 60 pounds, he's already neutered and ready to find the patient, gentle home he deserves.

King may be timid at first, but with a soft voice and calm introduction, he'll slowly begin to trust you. He feels safest in a quiet, loving environment.

King would do best with someone who understands that love can take time and is willing to move at his pace. He enjoys peaceful walks, observing the world around him, and having a safe spot to retreat to when he feels unsure.

If you have a kind heart and are looking for a soulful companion who will repay your patience a with lifelong devotion, come meet King. Underneath his shyness is a gentle spirit just waiting to blossom.
