Kenneth

This dog is currently out of state but will be transported to New England shortly with no additional travel costs. The long distance adoption process includes talking to the foster they are living with in the south. Roughly 90% of our dogs are successfully long distance adopted and 10% adopted locally. **Please read Kenneth's entire profile, which includes a link to the adoption application at the end. Thank you!** Meet Kenneth - a 3 1/2 year old, 75 pound, Black Lab mix boy who was a stray ending up in a Tennessee shelter before coming into rescue. And now this poor boy has been waiting six months in rescue with absolutely no applications from loving families. Doesn't he deserve a home??? His foster shares "Kenneth is a fun loving dog! He likes to run and play with his brother Richard and all the other dogs here. He used to be around cats too and did just fine with them. He loves to meet new people and does well with kids. But he is still a little energetic so we suggest older kids only so he doesn't accidentally knock over the little ones - he wouldn't mean it he just doesn't know his size. He loves being outdoors and is great on a leash for walks using a harness. He also seems fully housebroken using a doggie door. He knows sit, takes treats gently, and understands to meet people with four on the floor. We know these pictures aren't the best but this boy is HANDSOME! We will try to get a few more. And he is so sweet and loving -and he deserves a loving family and a wonderful future!" All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be. To adopt or learn more about Kenneth, you must fill out an adoption application.

Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid. If you are considering a dog but don't apply right away please make sure to search for the dog by name if the link you have no longer works. Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
