Kendrick - Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Portland, Oregon

Meet Kendrick!

Kendrick is a two-year-old Pointer/Heeler/Terrier mix who truly checks every box. If you've been searching for that perfect balance of adventure buddy and cuddle companion, this is your guy.

At around 65 pounds, Kendrick is the kind of dog who fits beautifully into just about any home. He's incredibly loyal, smart, affectionate, and fun. While he can be a little shy when meeting new people, once he feels safe, his sweet and loving personality shines through. Kendrick is looking for a patient family that will give him the time he needs to build trust-it's well worth the wait, and the bond you'll form with him is incredibly rewarding.

Kendrick absolutely loves being around other dogs and thrives in a pack setting. He has shown nothing but wonderful behavior with dogs of all sizes and would do best in a home with another friendly canine companion. He also did very well during his cat test and is great with children.

A securely fenced backyard would be ideal for Kendrick, giving him a safe space to run, play, and build confidence. He's still learning about life on a leash and doesn't have much experience walking that way yet, so he'll do best with someone who has the time and patience to continue helping him gain confidence and enjoy his walks.

While Kendrick enjoys playtime and has a fun, playful side, he's not "go-go-go" all day. He also loves the quieter moments-peaceful afternoons, relaxing at home, and cuddling up beside his favorite people.

Kendrick's story makes him even more special. He was rescued at the very last moment from a high-kill shelter in Texas. Now he's embracing his second chance at life and is ready to find a family who will give him the love, patience, and security he's always deserved.

If you're looking for a loyal best friend who will reward your patience with endless love and devotion, Kendrick is ready to meet you.

His adoption fee is $295, and he is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
