About Kilo

Meet Kilo! His grin says it all—he’s a big-hearted, friendly soul just waiting for his new family. Kilo is still settling into the rescue, but he already wins people over everywhere he goes. His first car ride made him a little anxious, but the moment he arrived at doggy daycare, his excitement took over. He soaked up every bit of attention and was quick to bond with the staff, especially Lindsy the groomer. Kilo is three years old, neutered, microchipped, and current on his vaccines and heartworm test, so he’s all set to start this next chapter. He is eager for affection and would love to tag along for adventures or relax with you on the couch. Kilo gets along well with dogs and children but isn’t a fit for homes with cats at this time. Patience with house training will help him thrive. Is Kilo the buddy you’ve been looking for? Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
