(COLORADO SPRINGS) — This week, FOX21 Morning News and the Humane Society of the Pikes Peak Region (HSPPR) are featuring Kaine, a seven-year-old brown brindle and white Dutch Shepherd mix that came into HSPPR as an owner surrender.
Kaine is looking for a loving home that has space for an older guy that still loves to spend time playing outside. HSPPR said Kaine loves to play fetch with a tennis ball and run around with other dogs. He already knows “sit” and “down” and is very gentle taking treats. He does have experience living with other dogs.
Kaine’s adoption fee is free, thanks to a generous donor. His adoption includes a voucher for a veterinarian exam, vaccinations, 30 days of pet health insurance, a microchip, and he is already neutered. He is available for adoption immediately.
Welcoming a new dog into your life can be an exciting and fulfilling experience, but the transition can be overwhelming and stressful for both the dog and the new owner. HSPPR said offering patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement during this time helps the new pet build trust and adjust to the new environnment.
