Ron Swanson is a dog of few words (mostly because he’s a dog), but if he could talk, he’d tell you emotions are for people who don’t have backyard sun to lie in. A little reserved at first—like any respectable gentleman—Ron has been quietly transforming into a braver, more confident version of himself at the sanctuary. The only thing missing? A home worthy of his stoic heart. Ron may not be the type to leap into your arms or spoon on the couch while watching rom-coms. That’s not his style. But he will join you on your favorite walking trail, share a peaceful sunbath in the yard, and absolutely accept treats—because this dog loves snacks almost as much as he loves personal space. He enjoys the company of other dogs (especially the confident, no-nonsense types), and would appreciate a canine roommate to help him navigate the mysterious art of domestic life. Looking for a loyal companion who believes in quiet mornings, strong boundaries, and a steady supply of treats? Ron Swanson is the guy for you!

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.
