Ken - Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Woodstock, Ontario

Meet Ken!

Ken is an adorable puppy with a whole lot of charm, and we have a feeling he won’t be waiting long before someone falls completely in love with him. Ken is being rescued by our amazing Northern rescue partners before the cold weather hits. They are giving this little guy the chance to leave the harsh conditions behind and come into our care, where he can be safe, warm, and ready to start his new life.

Like any puppy, Ken is going to need a family who is ready for the full puppy experience. He’ll need someone to patiently show him the ropes, help him learn his manners, work on potty training, and provide plenty of socialization, structure, exercise, and positive reinforcement.

There will undoubtedly be puppy zoomies, teething, chewing, silly moments, and a few “what have we gotten ourselves into?” days along the way. But that’s all part of raising a puppy — and watching them grow into the amazing dog they’re meant to become makes every moment worth it.

Ken is looking for a family who understands that bringing home a puppy is a commitment for life. In return, this handsome little guy will bring years of companionship, adventures, laughs, cuddles, and unconditional love.

Our Northern rescue partners are making sure Ken gets his chance before winter arrives. Now he just needs his forever family to take it from here.
