Kane trying to look serious and scary for Halloween vibes but he couldn’t keep up the facade and immediately reverted to his lover boy self! 🎃 🖤
Kane was found roaming the streets, who knows the life he had before but we do know the life he deserves from here on out! This guy is incredible. He is highly affectionate and seeking connection big time. He loves all people and was even very gentle hanging with a little hooman. He is of course very intelligent, executes commands flawlessly and has the best leash skills! He reacts to nothing on walks, very calmly focused. He has potential to live with another dog as he’s tested well with some dogs. He also never potties in his kennel!
Kane is estimated to be around 3 years or so.
He is approx 70 lbs.

These three have been waiting so patiently for their turn to be adopted.
Luckily they’re only getting cuter!
They are aboput 4 months old now.
They are happy, healthy, adorable pups!

Happy is the biggest boy. He already weighs 20 pounds. Happy is sensitive, gentle, loving, sweet, willing to please, and has moderate energy. He has three littermates and they are also cuddly and affectionate. He is very special. I have never enjoyed puppies as much as I have enjoyed these special babies. These puppies are going to be very easy to train and house break. Kennel training will be a snap.

Mindy will be a medium girl. Mindy is especially smart, playful, and a joyful little girl. She is the leader of the pack. 🙂 Of course she has the same DNA as Happy. Mindy is also very affectionate and loving and will be so much fun to have as a wonderful family member. Training her will be a pleasure.❤️

Bruce is sensitive, affectionate, very sweet, smart and full of love. Bruce is going to be a medium guy. Bruce will be a joy to train. He will house break easily and of course crate train without a problem. Of all the puppies I’ve ever fostered,these are my very very favorites. They are so happy and gentle and fun and spunky, all at once :-)♥️
