He stays calm in his kennel and enjoys leisurely walks, taking time to sniff and explore his surroundings. He's already learning to sit on command, showing his eagerness to please. Kilo dreams of a forever home where he can feel safe, loved, and cherished. Could you be the one to help this handsome boy start fresh? Kilo is about 4 years old and weighs 60 lbs.
