My story

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

Adoptable in: MA, RI, NH, CT, and VT

Good with dogs: Yes
Good with cats: Unknown, likely yes
Good with kids: Yes, dog savvy children
Crate trained: Yes
House Trained: Yes

Dilly is cautiously curious of the world. He is very observant of all things, noises, lights and doorways. Once he determines he is safe, he investigates, and is very loyal. Dilly is very disciplined and intelligent; he sits when told and waits patiently for his turn to get a treat. He loves praise and takes correction well. He plays tug with other pups and people, and loves to play with toys and bones. Dilly would do well with a family or an individual, especially if they did outside activities.

Dilly just wants to play once he meets other dogs, but if they don't want to, he leaves them alone. He loves all ages of people. Once he decides he is safe, he will want to play.

Dilly is crate trained and house trained with a doggy door. He may need to adjust to a home without one. He walks well on a leash and is an all-round good boy!

More about this rescue

Our mission at Last Hope K9 Rescue is to save every possible dog we can from being euthanized within high-volume kill shelters throughout the U.S.

As the literal “last hope” of nearly every animal we serve, we work tirelessly to place each one within a stable, loving environment that can act as either their forever home, or the gateway to their forever home. We also strive to ensure that all of our adoptions and foster placements are the optimal fit for everyone involved, including our dogs. This leads to our second goal: enriching human lives through canine companionship. To us, you can’t have one without the other.

Lastly, we promote animal welfare by lobbying important initiatives that both protect and give voice to the voiceless. By fostering an environment of collaboration with other organizations that share our goals, and working together instead of in competition, we find that we accomplish more.
