About Kyle

Kyle has been with the rescue longer than any other dog, but he’s managed to settle well into a foster home and really flourishes with a steady routine. He’s convinced he’s probably a Virgo; order and predictability suit him just fine. Kyle is sharp and attentive, catching on to schedules like walks and crate time without missing a beat—if he could, he’d likely shoot you a calendar reminder. He’s a true lap dog at heart, always looking for a chance to dole out kisses and squeeze in for a cuddle. Kyle’s got a streak of dry humor, too; the odd, grumbly noises he makes add to his old-soul charm. Training comes naturally for him, especially if there’s a treat involved—just don’t expect him to eat any snack he doesn’t rate. In his foster home, Kyle shares space with a male dog and two cats. While he isn’t looking to play buddy with the other dog, he gets along and mostly minds his own business. Because he does not get along with children, he’s looking for a home with adults only. Kyle is in Bloomington, IN. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
