My story

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

Meet King!

King is a one-year-old Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix weighing 34 pounds, and he knows how to work a room. He came to us as an owner surrender when his owner became physically disabled, and now this handsome boy is ready for his next chapter.

This sweet, smart pup has a medium-to-high energy level and would love a home where someone is around often—especially someone who enjoys a daily stroll with a dog who walks like a runway model, right by your side. True to his collie roots, King is very intelligent, well-behaved, and eager to please.

King is housetrained and crate trained according to his previous owner. King is dog-friendly and cat-friendly and has lived happily with both—he’s basically a social butterfly with fur. While he hasn’t spent much time around children, he’s shown great potential with everyone he meets and charms just about anyone who crosses his path.
To keep him looking Fabio-fabulous, King will need regular professional grooming, but with those good looks and that winning personality, he’s worth every glam session.

King is available through our foster-to-adopt program, which allows you to welcome him into your home while he completes his routine vetting, including neuter, vaccinations, microchipping, and heartworm testing.

If you’re ready to meet this dashing boy and give him the loving home he’s been searching for, please email dogadoptions@parmashelter.org and submit a dog adoption application online for King.

King’s adoption fee is $160.

Additional adoption info

At Parma Animal Shelter, we do not adopt our animals out as gifts or surprises. We believe that adopting a pet is a significant commitment and should be a well-considered decision. Therefore, we reserve the right to refuse any adoption to ensure the best match for both the animal and the adopter.

All of our animals are microchipped, tested for disease, vaccinated, spayed/neutered, treated for fleas and internal parasites, and given lots of loving care during their stay with us. We are dedicated to meeting their medical needs and do our best to socialize them.

If you have questions about any of our cats, please feel free to email us at catadoptions@parmashelter.org. Our volunteers are more than happy to provide information about their personalities and any recommendations for the best home environment possible for each individual animal.

To start the adoption process, you can submit an application by visiting our website parmashelter.org. For cats, please use the following link: https://form.jotform.com/223634976258165. For dogs, questions can be directed to dogadoptions@parmashelter.org, and applications can be submitted here: https://form.jotform.com/230706749163055.

As we get to know our animals better, we will post updates on their behavior in the shelter to assist you in making an informed decision.

Thank you once again for your interest in our dogs and cats. We look forward to helping you find the perfect companion.
