Kevlar

Meet Kevlar – Your Loyal, Heart-Fulfilling, Ball-Destroying Soulmate?

Kevlar is an 8-year-old shepherd mix with the heart of a loyal companion and the playstyle of a mild wrecking ball. He weighs just over 50 pounds, and after a pretty rough start, being left at a boarding facility in Alabama and never picked up, he’s ready for his true forever home. Kevlar has been waiting for 4 years with zero interest, and we can't figure out why – he's such a good boy! When the rescue group that originally pulled him from a high-kill shelter shut down, Kevlar came to us, and thank goodness he did because this boy is a keeper.

Ideal Home

Kevlar is dog-friendly with the right crew. He tends to vibe best with females or laid-back males who aren’t bigger than him. He does have crate anxiety, so crating isn’t for him, but he’s house-trained and trustworthy in the home. He still has some energy and enjoys doing zoomies or just trotting around the yard like he owns it. Don’t bother with baby gates, Kevlar sees them as light suggestions; he can jump them without hesitation if there’s a door calling his name.

Ongoing Health

Kevlar has been treated for heartworm, so it’s important that his future family continues with year-round prevention (about $10/month) and keeps up with annual heartworm tests.

Training & Support

Kevlar doesn’t fetch balls; he DESTROYS them. It’s part of his charm. Squeakers? Goners. Tennis balls? Pulverized. Your old stress toys? Hand them over. This sweet boy is all about loyalty. He wants to please, stay close, and be your shadow.
