Kendal and his siblings (our "K Litter") came to us all the way from South Carolina.  These babies put the cuteness factor way over the top!!  They also have positively darling personalities -- happy, playful, social, and affectionate.  They have simply charmed everyone whom they've met! 

These pups are predominantly Redbone Coonhound.  Our best guess is that there is Shar Pei or Boxer in the mix, but we are not sure.  Redbone Coonhounds are known to make great family dogs.  They love their humans and enjoy being included in activities with their people.  While they are people-oriented and affectionate, they generally are not as fervently attention-demanding like some other breeds (e.g., Labradors).  Redbones are said to combine handsome looks and an even temperament with a confident air. 

As for Kendal, he is as sweet as he is handsome.  He is a very affectionate pup who loves to be picked up and cuddled.  Like the rest of his siblings, he is playful, happy, and social.  He enjoys time outside exploring and is also happy to snuggle down for a nap with his sibs (or his foster mom).  Kendal is sure to bring many years of joy to the family lucky enough to adopt him.  He will make a wonderful companion in any home where he is treated as a loved family member and included in family life.

Adopting a puppy is a serious responsibility -- it involves a long-term commitment of time, love and resources.  So, please seriously & carefully evaluate your circumstances BEFORE deciding to adopt.  If you truly have the time, willingness & ability to meet your puppy's needs -- and to make a long-term commitment for your pet's entire life, no matter what may lie ahead in yours -- then please apply.  To do that, please register on our website (www.safeatlast.net), log back on with your username and password, and complete an online adoption application.  Once we have your application, a volunteer will be in touch to work with you through the review process.  

Our process is very straightforward, but it does involve a phone interview, reference checks and a home assessment.  An adoption fee of $300, and a refundable $35 spay/neuter deposit (required by NYS law), also apply.   

Because our animals are fostered in private homes and we do not have a centralized facility, you must be approved for adoption before you can meet the pups.  We appreciate your understanding in this regard.  Of course, if you would like additional information, or if you have any questions, please email us at info@safeatlast.net.  We are happy to assist.

Thank you for your interest in our rescue babies and for helping us save shelter pets, one life at a time
