About King

Meet King, the senior Casanova ready to find his forever throne. At 9 years old, he might be a senior, but don’t let that fool you—King has plenty of pep and love to share. This 60-pound Pit Bull mix was rescued from a shelter's euthanasia list in Houston and has since bounced back, completing his heartworm treatment like a champ. King’s personality shines bright. He adores making human friends and enjoys relaxed walks, but he’s also a pro napper. Despite his love for lounging, he still has energy for adventurous playtime. Now, a little about King’s romantic side: he's a massive fan of the ladies, both human and canine. He’d thrive best in a home with a female dog since he prefers the company of a Queen. No boys allowed in his royal inner circle! Currently ruling his foster home in Houston, TX, King is fully crate trained and a perfect gentleman. Transport is included in his adoption fee, and he’s ready to travel for true love! Whether you're from Texas or many other states, King awaits your application. What are you waiting for?
