King James

My story

Meet King James, a charming and affectionate five-year-old pup who’s truly as majestic as his name suggests. Surrendered through no fault of his own, King was deeply loved by his previous family, who made the difficult decision to rehome him after moving in to care for elderly parents. This loyal boy has known nothing but love and kindness and is now hoping to find his next forever home—one where he can once again be someone’s best friend, hiking buddy, and devoted shadow.King is the perfect blend of playful and chill. He's housebroken, crate trained, and knows all his basic commands—including “sit,” “stay,” “wait,” and “leave it.” He’s got great leash manners, walking at a calm, easy pace with only the occasional tug when something especially exciting (like a stray cat!) crosses his path. He’s easily redirected with a gentle voice or treat and always eager to please. Speaking of treats—he loves them! Just be sure to use an open palm since he gets a little enthusiastic about snacks. King can be rambunctious at times and not always aware of his surroundings. Therefore we recommend him not being in a home with small children, as he might accidentally knock them over. Older kids looking for a playmate will love him.  After being attacked by two dogs earlier in life, King is sometimes selective of other dogs. He would prefer to be the only pet in the family but he has no issue with other dogs on leash while he is walking. ##2396060##
