About Kenny

Kenny is a 2-year-old, 32-pound neutered Staffie and Terrier mix with a sweet, affectionate nature and a playful spirit. Currently fostered in San Antonio, TX, he can transport out of state once matched with an approved adopter. Kenny brings moderate energy and loves to play with other dogs of all sizes. He’s social and recognizes when another dog is ready to stop playing, but he benefits from a home where toys and treats are managed, as he can be possessive of his treasures. This handsome boy has been around children of all ages and does wonderfully with them, showing his cuddly and affectionate side. Although he hasn't been cat-tested yet, he loves meeting new people. Initially a bit shy and anxious, he warms up quickly, revealing his gentle personality. Kenny walks beautifully on a leash, rides calmly in the car, and has no issues with stairs. He is crate trained and can comfortably spend a few hours in a crate. Playful, silly, and smart, Kenny thrives on toys and one-on-one attention from his people. While he doesn't need another dog to be happy, he flourishes with an adopter who can provide structure, positive reinforcement, and lots of love. His ideal home would understand his toy-guarding tendencies and continue to guide him patiently. Kenny is not just a rescue dog; he's a loyal, loving companion waiting to blossom into your devoted best friend. With the right family, he will share his playful energy and affectionate heart every single day. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
