My story

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

Burger King was found wondering around behind a fast food restaurant in Raleigh. He was brought into the shelter by a Good Samaritan, who was able to get him into her car and spend some time with him.
He was posted on Nextdoor-hoping to reunite him with his owner, before bringing him into the shelter. She had very nice things to say about him-that he was very sweet-and came along easitly with her.

Burger King waits quietly in hie kennel-for his turn to go out for a walk. He collars easily and walks right beside you on leash. He looks back at you, checking in-wagging his tail and his whole body when you speak to him. He sits for a treat and takes them gently from your hand. The shelter estimates he is around 3 years old-and is a good weight for his age. Burger King is not sure where he is, and is a little stressed by the noise and uncertainly of the kennel environment. He has not been to play groups, so we are not sure about how he is with other dogs-but he is not reactive in the kennels or outside. If you have a pet at home-slow introductions outside the home initially is always recommended.

Won't you come see if he is a good fit for your family.

Burger King is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick, and heartworm prevention, is microchipped, and will be neutered prior to going home. If you have dogs or cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times.
