Story
Name: Kenny
Gender: Male
Age: 4 months
Current Weight: 18 lbs
Expected Adult Size: Medium (25-50 lbs)
Breed: Terrier mix
Energy Level: Medium
Dog Friendly: Yes, and can have other dogs in the home or can be an only dog.
Compatible Types if Dog Selective: Good with dogs he knows, nervous and barks at dogs not familiar to him. Will need slow introductions to any dogs in his new home.
Cat Friendly: Selective
Kid Friendly: No
Apartment Friendly: No
Physical Fence Requirement: Physical fence preferred
Crate Trained: Yes
Likes: Kenny loves food and treats! Learning new skills and tricks, taking walks, chewing on nylabones, destroying stuffed toys and removing their squeakers, hunting for sticks in the backyard, having a soft blanket on his raised bed, barking at the cats in his foster home, curling up on the couch during football games, and wrestling with his foster dog siblings.
Dislikes: Sleeping in his crate at night (fine during the day), certain cats, nervous about unfamiliar dogs or when dogs in other yards are barking. Going outside in very cold weather.
Ideal Home/Adopter: Kenny would do well in an active home. He likes to run around and play, then chill with a nylabone on his bed. He is very smart, LOVES learning new things, and is very food motivated, so a person or family willing to teach him new things would make him very happy. He does well in a crate while his foster family runs errands, etc. but would do best in an environment where he did not have to spend entire work day hours in a crate. Kenny does not like to sleep in his crate so he would prefer a family willing to allow him to sleep on the bed. Kenny enjoys playing with the dogs in his foster home, but is nervous about dogs he doesn't know so he will need time to adjust to any dog siblings in his new home.
What makes this dog special: Kenny is a young puppy with a love of learning! He is so smart and very food motivated which makes training with him so much fun. He is just a puppy, so often has to be reminded about appropriate behavior like not jumping or not mouthing, but he wants so badly to please (and to be rewarded with treats!) that he tries very hard to do whatever you are asking him to do. He makes the cutest noises and has the sweetest face you just can't help, but love him!
Kenny's adoption fee is $350. All fees include spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations, worming, flea and heartworm current. All dogs over 6 months of age have been tested and are heartworm negative.
