About Kenny

Kenny believes the best parts of puppyhood are playtime, snacks, and rolling over for a good tummy rub. His curious and playful nature drives him to investigate everything around him, though he’s learned how to enjoy his own company too. When he’s had his fill of adventures, Kenny is happy to settle down for some affection and rest. Confident and independent, this little guy no longer relies on his sister or other dogs to feel secure. He enjoys having canine buddies and would happily share his home with a friendly playmate, but he is just as content being the only dog. He’s found ways to entertain himself, making him a good fit even for busier households. Kenny has made fantastic strides in his daily routine. He willingly goes into his crate and comfortably sleeps through the night. His growing independence suggests he could adapt well to a working household with age-appropriate breaks and ongoing puppy training. An active home full of puppy play, exploration, and endless belly rubs would suit him perfectly. Ready to welcome a spirited, independent puppy into your life? This rescue dog is eager to meet you. Kenny is available for transport to the Brattleboro, VT area, serving adopters in Vermont and the surrounding regions. Most adopters are within a 1 to 2 hour drive of the transport meetup. Pickup logistics will be arranged upon adoption. Make Kenny part of your life! Apply directly at shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ALDR/Dog to get started. Kenny will be waiting with paws crossed!
