Meet Kevin!
When Kevin first arrived he didn’t know how to socialize with other dogs and had a strong prey drive for any small critters like cats or squirrels. He would stalk smaller animals, even birds flying by. He was muzzle trained and crate trained for safety purposes when being introduced and socialized around his new foster siblings and with time became a lot more comfortable and now no longer requires a muzzle. He gets along well with people even children, we have been managing the prey drive and after a slow introduction he slowly became comfortable around his house mates. Although he’s made great progress, at this time he would be best in a home with no other pets, or an experienced home willing to do a slow introduction. If Kevin will be living with other pets he will need to be kept separate for feeding as he can guard his food and bones from other dogs.
Kevin would love a home in the country or in a quiet suburb. The downtown life is not for him as he can get over stimulated and dog reactive on leash. He respects guest that are fur free with excitement and love. He gets super excited when it’s meal time, bone or treat time and shows this by finally sitting and sharing his paw. Inside he never barks. He is left to roam free in the home alone and he’s been super respectful and non destructive. Kevin still has lots to learn and would love a dedicated, patient and kind family to teach him the rules of your home.
Kevin has been heart worm treated and Lyme treated. He would love a home that can offer him unconditional support and obedience training to help him be the best dog he can be. Kevin is currently Intact (neuter will be included in adoption fee and scheduled at a later date). Unfortunately he cannot be neutered at this time because of his treatment. He will need to be retested for heart worm 8 months after his last injection and kept on heartworm prevention.
