My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Kiwi is very much a companion animal he wants to be near his person and will sit at your feet or on your lap for hours. He is very eager to please. Kiwi had parvo very badly as a young puppy so he was having difficulty with knowing when he had to go to the bathroom. He still has a disconnect between knowing that he has to go and alerting you. When he has to go he has difficulty holding it Which makes it imperative that you're willing to let him consistently. He is getting better as the ages so perhaps training and time will alleviate the issue. He's very sweet and loving which makes it worth the effort. He will need a fenced yard. His adoption fee of $300 includes neuter, microchipped and vaccinations We are located in the Colorado Springs area. All adoptions require a home visit. Please apply at www.whimperstowags.org under forms.
