Meet Winchester, an extra-large love bug with an even bigger heart! After spending 120 days waiting in a shelter in Idaho, this handsome adult dog made his way to Salt Lake City in search of the perfect home. And now, he’s ready to show you just how much love (and snuggles!) a big boy can give. Winchester is incredibly affectionate and has mastered the art of puppy-dog eyes — the kind that make you feel guilty for even thinking about ignoring him. He loves attention, cuddles, and being close to his people. Because of his size and strength, he’ll do best with a special adopter who’s ready to handle his brawny build as well as his tender heart. He’ll need to be the only pet in the home, but trust us: Winchester has more than enough love to give all on his own. If you’re looking for a loyal, goofy, snuggly companion with a heart of gold, Winchester might just be your perfect match. Visit the Best Friends Lifesaving Center in Salt Lake City or email utahadoptions@bestfriends.org if you’re interested in meeting Winchester.

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.
