Story
King may be shy, but beneath his reserved nature lies a heart full of love. Weighing around 110 pounds, this sweet cuddle bug is looking for a home where he can continue to grow and feel safe. When King first arrived, he was overwhelmed—his whole life had been spent with just his owner, and the shelter was a big, scary change.Thanks to the patience and care of our staff, King has made incredible progress. At first, he only went outside for potty breaks (yes, this boy is fully housetrained!), but now he enjoys walks and even the occasional run around our facility. Every day, we see him grow into the strong, brave King he was meant to be.Despite his progress, shelter life is still stressful for King. He needs a home with no other animals and patient, loving people who will continue to help him build confidence. Just because he came to us at 8 years old, scared and unsure, doesn’t mean his story is over—King still has so much love to give and a bright future ahead. Could you be the one to show him the life he deserves?

Story
He has been the most wonderful companion for me. I bought him as a friend for my husbands American Bulldog who when my spouse passed and could not stop crying for him. Since then I've almost lost my ability to walk due to a hip needing replaced and losing my health insurance when my job closed down. A car ran thru my home on Thanksgiving day and I've been in temporary housing ever since. I'll be moving in with my son in his small trailer and can't take the dogs. I'm asking if you can help me rehome Kobe before that happens. He's potty trained and used to family life. Please call Kathy at 302-983-1761November 5, 2024, 3:21 pm
