About Hershey Aka Kain

Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now! Introducing Kain, also lovingly known as Hershey, a medium-sized Boxer/Pit Bull Terrier mix with a heart as big as his smile. Born December 7th, 2022, this Sagittarius is playful and eager to please, with that signature Sagittarian love for adventure and companionship! Kain is house trained and crate trained, making him a great fit for a family ready to offer plenty of engagement. His loving personality shines brightest when he's with his humans—he craves affection and enjoys being included in all the fun activities around the house. Kain is thriving in his foster home, especially when playing with dog siblings of similar size and energy. He enjoys supervised play with cats and can be tested with children upon request to ensure the best match. Always up-to-date on his vaccines, neutered, microchipped, and heartworm negative, Kain is healthy and happy but currently working on slimming down a bit. His ideal family would have someone able to spend plenty of time with him (and maybe a canine friend to keep him company). Kain is working hard on new training commands and would love an owner eager to help him keep learning. His affectionate and loyal nature will make him a devoted addition to the right home. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
