Flint

My story

Flint is a 2-year-old Golden Retriever mix with a heart that’s slowly beginning to bloom. Weighing in at about 70 pounds, Flint is still learning what it means to be truly loved. Life in the shelter has been hard on him, and it’s clear that affection is something new—but he's discovering that being cared for feels pretty wonderful. Each day, he's opening up a little more, letting his gentle nature shine through. He’s a favorite among our volunteers, greeting them with his sweet hound bark and those lovable floppy ears. On walks, Flint starts out with a burst of enthusiasm—he’s so excited to get going!—but once he settles into the rhythm, he walks beautifully. He adores being outside and would happily spend all day soaking up the sunshine and fresh air. Having spent most of his life in a kennel, the outdoors is his happy place. Flint keeps a spotless kennel at the shelter and has proven himself to be clean and respectful of his space. He also enjoys toys, especially squeaky ones and balls, and he’s gentle with them—no destruction, just pure enjoyment. He’s got a nice dose of energy, but he’s not a wild child. He won’t bowl you over, but he will make you smile. Flint is ready for a patient, loving home that will continue to show him that life can be safe, kind, and full of joy. He's waited long enough to find his place in the world—could it be with you? His minimum adoption fee is $300 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.
