About Kurt

Kurt is an adult male Pointer mix with a gentle and quiet demeanor. This sweet dog embodies a calm, affectionate spirit, ready to bring joy and companionship to a loving home. After spending nearly a year in a shelter, he's eager to find his forever family. Kurt rarely barks and enjoys the company of cats, dogs, and kids alike. He is house trained and comfortably crates when left alone. Previously accustomed to a fenced yard, he can learn to potty on a leash with a patient adopter. A house setting suits him better than an apartment. Currently undergoing heartworm treatment, Kurt is expected to make a full recovery and is not contagious. He’s poised to be an incredible companion for someone ready to embrace his sweetness.
