My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Important Facts About Kashton
Dogs: Kashton enjoys the company of other dogs and is currently being fostered with another dog.
Cats: Unknown
Kids: Kashton lived with children in his previous home.
House-trained: Working on it, and he is crate-trained!

Kaston`s foster family told us: `Kashton is an absolute snuggle bug. He adores spending time with his people and gets along great with our 3.5 year old dog. He`s an energetic pup who loves wrestling, chasing, tug, and doing just about everything with our dog! But he also loves to give kisses and snuggle in with you under the covers or just be next to you as you work. He`s a busybody so expect him to follow you everywhere or be curious as to your whereabouts if he doesn`t see you. He`s able to entertain himself with a toy, chew or simply taking a nap in the sun! He is currently crate-trained, working on house-training, and knows the command sit. He does well on the leash and is very patient while giving him a bath. He`s a voracious eater and is very treat-motivated. He`s been an absolute joy to have in our house and the bestest boy!`

If you are interested in adopting Kashton, please send an email to AWLA.foster.erika@gmail.com to arrange an initial virtual meet and greet with the pet’s foster parent or a staff member. They will reply to you within 24-48 hours.
