Story
Grandparents are suffering from severe dementia and can no longer take care of him. He is super cuddly and loves to be with people. He can be scared of men at first but does warm up. He does tinkle a little when he’s super excited and receiving pets from new people. He is about 2 years old. Spayed and up to date on all shits and vet visits. Looking for a home that can take care of him since we no longer can and love him even with that snaggle tooth (lol).

Story
Meet Kevin!Kevin may be small, but he’s mighty when it comes to loyalty. He came to us with some behavioral history of being very protective of his person — acting as a little bodyguard who didn’t love sharing his owner’s attention. If you’re looking for a dog-friendly dog who also takes his role as your personal security very seriously, Kevin might be your guy.Since being with us, Kevin has shown no guarding or protection issues, and he has been settling in nicely. That said, it’s important to remember that dogs can behave differently in a shelter environment than they do in a home, so adopters should be mindful and ready to provide structure, guidance, and clear boundaries as Kevin continues to adjust.Kevin would do best in a home that appreciates a confident, spunky dog with a big personality in a small package — one who will make sure you feel like the safest person in the world. With the right match, Kevin has the potential to be an incredibly devoted companion.Kevin's adoption fee is $150, which helps support their medical care and preparation for adoption. If you are interested in meeting any of our animals, we encourage you to first visit our website and submit an adoption application: https://www.acskc.org/adopt-1Once your adoption application has been approved, we will call you to set up an appointment to meet with the pet! We welcome adopters from out of state to apply! _When it comes to our pets, we're all-inclusive! ACSKC Health Care for Each Adopted Pet Includes:Dogs: Preventatives for parasites, vaccines (Kennel Cough, Distemper, Rabies), spay/neuter, microchip, behavioral assessment.Cats: Parasite treatment, FeLV/FIV testing, deworming for kittens, vaccines (Distemper, Rabies), spay/neuter, microchip.What You’ll Take Home:Toys, treats, and food sampleRabies tag, microchip number, and medical recordsA “Pet Pal Packet” with feeding info, training tips, and guidance for helping your new pet adjust

Story
Meet Hank 💙 Hank is a little Chihuahua with a big heart that’s still learning to feel safe. When he first came in, he was very nervous and unsure, but once he went into a foster home, he began to blossom. With patience, consistency, and kindness, Hank has shown how much he can grow and trust. He’s doing much better now and continues to gain confidence every day. Hank would do best with a calm, understanding family who is willing to work with him at his pace and help him keep building confidence. In return, he’ll offer quiet companionship and lots of sweet moments as he settles in. Hank is a gentle soul looking for a loving home where he can truly feel secure and loved. 🐾💕
