This sweet boy loves nothing more than leaning into his humans for pets and affection. His gentle nature has made him a favorite among many. Though The King has arthritis in his back legs, it is well-managed with pain medication, and it doesn't slow him down from enjoying his days as your loving companion. He’s simply the sweetest dog you’ll ever meet and will make a wonderful addition to a home looking for a calm, affectionate friend. If you're ready to welcome a loyal and loving senior dog into your life, The King is waiting to be your new best friend. The King is does well in his crate, doesn't bark when in his crate, lets us know when he needs to go outside, and takes treats so very gentle.

About Best Friends Animal Society

Best Friends is working to end the killing of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters in part by getting more pets out of shelters and into loving homes.

We’ve come a long way since the first known city reached no-kill in 1994, and now we’re closer than ever to making the entire country no-kill. Of the roughly 3,900 shelters operating in America today, 1,300 of them are not yet no-kill, but nearly half are close with 100 or fewer additional pets to be saved, and we know what to do to get them there.

Best Friends is committed to working with passionate people like you to save homeless pets through adoption, volunteering, fostering, and advocacy. In addition to our lifesaving centers around the U.S, we also founded and run the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals.

Working together, we can save homeless pets in our communities and secure a better future for our best friends. Together, we will bring the whole country to no-kill.
