My name is Rascal!

Meet Rascal! This sweet boy was found as a stray in Kentucky and recently pulled from an overcrowded shelter, where he was lucky to get clean water, food, and just 5 minutes of outside time each day. Now, thanks to Peace4Paws, Rascal is on his way to a much better life in New Jersey, and he can't wait to meet his forever family!

Rascal is a 1-2-year-old, 45-50 pound male with a heart full of love. Original found as a stray, his Kentucky foster says he’s incredibly grateful to be out of the shelter and adores being showered with affection. In return, he’s eager to give all the love right back.  Rascal is dog friendly, and although he has not been kid tested yet, his affectionate nature shows that he’d be amazing. 

Rascal was given a DNA test and found to have a mix of 13 different breeds.  Here are the top 5:  31 % Alaskan Malamute, 19% German Shepherd, 12% Labrador Retreiver, 7% English Shepherd and 7% Beagle.

Rascal will arrive in NJ up-to-date on vaccines and neutered. If you're ready to add this loving boy to your family, apply today at https://peace4paws.org/adoption-application using a computer or laptop.
