Story
Kai is a Golden Rottweiler mix born on December 1, 2023. His mother was a Golden Retriever who got pregnant unexpectedly according to her owners. She had 9 puppies, Kai was the only one with his markings. Truthfully, the father’s breed is unknown, but has been assumed by the vet based off his markings. He is a rambunctious, playful, loving, cuddly, and energetic boy. He prefers to be around his humans as much as possible. He loves to run, play, fetch, and goes “bananas” for treats. He knows commands of sitting and waiting until his food bowls & water bowls are full. He’s been trained not to get on the furniture & does not sleep in bed with us. He is crate trained. My husband and I are rehoming Kai because we have a 12 year old female dog who just is not tolerating having a puppy around. She’s at an age where she just would rather lounge around and be a lone wolf. Also, my husband and I have had job changes & are unable to devote the time & attention he needs.

These pups are in Burlington, North Carolina too!

Story
Volunteer notes, 5/2/24:Hulk and I have spent quite a bit of time together now and I can`t believe he`s still in the shelter. He is such a playful, thoughtful, trustworthy boy every time I take him out, whether it`s on the leash or in the play yard. Each time we play together, he becomes more trusting. This time he let me sit next to him and hug him. I got a wonderful sloppy kiss in return! He seems to be a very clean dog who always keeps his white paws spotless. He does well with my husband but I get the sense he`s a ladies` man at heart. The name `Hulk` might make him sound big and imposing but he`s really on the small side for a large dog and so very gentle. This charmer deserves a loving home!Dog Day Out notes, 4/29/24:Hulk is the sweetest and most affectionest baby. He wouldn`t get in the car so I had to lift him into the back seat, immediately he jumped into the front and wanted to lay in my lap or lean against me. He had no problem getting out of the car and was very excited to enjoy our day together. We walked Lake Michael and he did great on the leash with minimal pulling. He loves to smell, so we did a lot of sniffing and a lot less walking which was fine. We enjoyed our surroundings, meeting dogs and people as we walked along. We also went to Great Bend Park and enjoyed walking and the waterfall. We even got chance to get our paws wet! Hulk is such a sweet dog, not a sound out of him, just lots of tail wags and smiles. Volunteer notes, 4/24/24:There are so many nice dogs at the shelter but Hulk just might be my favorite. I can`t possibly visit without taking him out for some playtime. He is truly an all-around excellent dog. He is playful yet calm, energetic yet attentive, and immediately people-friendly without requiring any special handling. We walked him on leash today and after some initial hesitation at the front door, he did beautifully--no pulling at all. He has such a sweet face and waits so patiently to be taken out; I can`t understand how someone hasn`t scooped him up yet.Volunteer notes, 4/18/24:We loved spending time with Hulk in the play yard today! He was calm and well-behaved on the leash. He was interested in the dogs around him but able to be redirected. He knew `sit` and took treats gently but wasn`t overly treat motivated. He was active and playful but also laid down for lots of pets. Such a nice boy and very smart!
