Kong-3/9/2021

OUR KIX CRITTER OF THE WEEK, KONG!

Say hello to Kong. Kong is a German Shepherd around 4 years old. When he

came into the shelter originally he had ear bites badly on both of his

ears. Their best guess is that Kong was tied up outside without much

interaction with people or other animals. He was adopted out once and

after a couple years he is back. His previous owner was hospitalized and

Kong would not let anyone into the home to care for him, leading to his

return to the shelter.

He will not be adopted to a home that already has pets or small

children. He is very selective on who he likes but is a big teddy bear

when he does. When Kong is in a crate he does very good about not going

to the bathroom in it. Kong is looking for a family that will be patient

with him while he is learning the ropes of obedience, good behaviors,

and walking correctly on a leash. He has come a long way already with

fast learning but is still working on being the best dog he can be. His

adoption fee of $125 includes his neuter, vaccinations, treatment for

intestinal parasites, a heartworm test, and a microchip. If you are

interested in making Kong a member of your family please give our

shelter a call to discuss this special boy or stop at the front desk

while visiting the shelter. More info
