Meet Gino, a gentle soul from Kentucky with the sweetest disposition, big brown eyes that will melt your heart, and a very pouty bottom lip! He is shy in the best way: not a scared shy, but in the way that he will politely inch closer... and closer... and closer to you until he is all the way on you. He didn't arrive knowing how to walk on a leash, like most of our southern dogs, but is now an expert!

When he is in a play room or in his kennel with a volunteer, Gino is all cuddles, tail wags, and quiet affection. He loves other dogs, and has lived with both dogs and kids (according to the note from the person who surrendered him and his brother to the Kentucky shelter, stating they could no longer care for them).

We had Gino's brother, Walter, only briefly back in May before he was adopted! Like Walter, Gino is such a good boy. We are puzzled as to why he has been overlooked these last few weeks! Gino has a wonderful temperament with dogs and people alike. He recently attended a busy adoption event at PetSmart and did great! That is a tall order for a dog, since there is a lot of stimulation at those events, and not all dogs do well. But Gino did great! He was happy to meet all ages of people and interacted well with all the other dogs we brought, and visitors' dogs. He was calm and happy the whole time.

Gino is a gem. We hope you will come and see why we are crazy about our Kentucky pups!

Gino's adoption fee is $300. This animal is neutered, up to date on core vaccines, and Heartworm negative.
