KENNY NEEDS SOMEONE NOW 💔
Kenny is just 1 year old. 40 pounds. A goofy, playful, social little guy who should be spending his days running through a backyard, playing with toys, going on adventures, and curling up next to someone who loves him.
Instead, he’s falling apart behind kennel doors.
And we need to be real and raw about it.
What started as restlessness and frustration has escalated into stress and panic. We’re doing all that we can to help him. We provide enrichment, exercise, and medication to help him cope.
But Kenny is now maxed out on medication management to support his stress levels. And he’s still struggling.
This is not what a quality life looks like.
And as much as it hurts to admit, we cannot give Kenny what he desperately needs within the walls of our shelter.
He’s not aggressive. He’s not a bad dog. He’s not broken.
He’s just a young, energetic dog whose mental well-being is deteriorating in an environment that simply cannot meet his needs.
We are desperately searching for someone to give Kenny a chance.
Someone with patience. Someone with an understanding of young, energetic dogs. Someone who can give him the structure, exercise, companionship, and stability he so desperately needs.
Kenny enjoys other dogs, though thoughtful introductions are important because larger or overly enthusiastic dogs can intimidate him. Older children would likely be the best fit for his exuberant personality.
We aren’t asking someone to take home a perfect dog. We’re asking someone to see a dog who has so much potential, but is running out of the ability to cope with his current circumstances.
We cannot medicate away the reality that Kenny is living in a kennel 23 hours a day. And we cannot keep pretending that another day, another week, or another month behind those doors is somehow going to make things better.
No adoption fees on any adult dogs, cats or kittens through the end of November.
