Pet of the Week! KENALI

Won’t you let the soulful eyes of Kenali win you over? Kenali is a sweet 1.5-year-old American Pit bull terrier mix who’s yearning for a patient and confident adopter to show him the world is not a scary place. Having not had a lot of exposure to the outside world in his previous home, Kenali tends to be nervous in new situations and around strangers. The staff have been working diligently on building his confidence and he’s made great progress. He loves people, he just needs to warm up to you and once he does his bond is strong. Kenali is fully housetrained but may need a refresher in a new home. He could potentially live with another dog, but no small pets please. Older children may be suitable as well. If you’re an experienced dog owner willing to work with this handsome boy, please reach out to the kennel staff at (413) 447-7878 ext. 126 to learn more about him!
