Story
Meet Kingston of the K pup litter!!This cutie is a golden retriever and for once, we know who daddy was....a black shepherd mix.A great breed combo for sure!Kingston is an old soul with a good dose of puppy love and energy. He can be a bit shy at first but once he's comfortable with someone he is ready for all the love and pets. He truly has so much love to give!! Loyal and sweet, Kingston melts hearts with his calm demeanor and love of cuddles. His true goofball personality comes out when playing with a squeaky toy or rolling around in the sunshine. He is learning the joys of neighborhood walks where he can take his time smelling the roses and people watching. This boy is wonderful on leash and is happy to stroll at whatever pace his human sets. Any timidness goes out the window when it comes to the outdoors-he is fearless when it comes to exploring the woods and would make a wonderful hiking or jogging buddy. This boy really comes out his shell when romping around with his humans or dog friends. He has loved living with his foster dog siblings and would be great for him to have a dog companion to continue showing him the ropes. While he prefers a slow introduction, once he's familiarized himself he is ready to put all his trust in his people and fellow dogs. He looks to his humans for direction and comfort and loves to bond with his family. Kingston is eager to please and is motivated to pick up on commands- with the help of one of his favorite things- treats!! Kingston is playful and fun, ready for an adventure with his humans or happy to be a couch potato and cuddle. He is fully housetrained, loves sleeping in the car, and is great on a leash.
