My name is Denny - Kitchener!

Hi my name is Denny! I am a sweet boy that needs a bit of time before I am comfortable with new people. I love to go for long walks with my people. When I get comfortable with someone new you will find I have quite the playful and silly side. I love to zoom around outdoors and chase my people when playing tag. If I sound like the pur-fect fit for you, apply today!

~ Denny is looking for an active home that will be able to take him on lots of adventures
~ Denny would do best in a home of adults or children close to adult age due to his nervousness
~ While in our care we have seen some resource guarding with his food and his new family will need to be able to work with him on this behaviour
~ Denny will need to be signed up for training prior to going into his fur-ever home to ensure he works on building his confidence
