Red

My story

Red was supposed to be a Minnesota State Police canine, but apparently he was too nice, not aggressive enough. So my friend brought him back to Maryland for his kids. The little ones didn’t want to have anything to do with him. So, I adopted him as a young puppy… he has grown, but he’s not yet a year old.(Oct ‘25, estimated birth date window)He’s a great dog, loves to romp and play, and he loves to give kisses!But, at my age, 69, he is just too much for me to handle or provide for him the environment he needs to play and grow into the fantastic adult dog he’s destined to be. He needs someone with time, patience and energetic personality to help him reach his obvious potential as a great protector and companion.It truly breaks my heart to let him go, but after nine months of providing, loving and caring for him, I am worn out. I wish that I had more to offer him, but I’m not the active man I used to be.He deserves better. I hope to be able to connect him with the best person and home!
