Good looking male seeks loving companion

Could you help find me a home please?

This is Kabuki. Kabuki is a young adult neutered male from Turtle Gardens Rescue Society. He thought he had a home but it didn't work out because Kabuki doesn't like being left alone. In fact, he doesn't like it soooo much that he managed to break out through a window. And tried to chew his way through a door. And busted out of his crate. And that's a problem when his human works outside the home.

How can you resist this face????

Kabuki is currently in foster care here on the island. I transported Kabuki to the foster home, and he travelled extremely well in the car for the hour long trip. He showed interest in his surroundings (between bouts of napping) but did not try to escape his safety leash or fly around the vehicle. Nor did he bark, whine, upchuck, or demonstrate other undesireable characteristics in the vehicle.

I'm a very good boy!

He integrated into the foster home's large pack with no difficulty and is being as good as gold. His foster mom is assessing him, and so far he has managed just fine being left confined with two other dogs for a very short time. His foster mom will also assess his tolerance for being left completely alone, but our boy Kabuki would probably do best in a home with at least one canine brother or sister. And, until he shows us differently, he needs an at-home person too.

May I live with you?

Kabuki is peppy without being obnoxious - he loves to run and play, but settles down quickly beside his person or another dog when playtime is over. He is great with other dogs, and we've been told he excelled at doggy daycare. He is still working on his basic commands - he knows "sit" but needs someone to teach him not to pull on the leash. That shouldn't be too hard - he shows promise of being a quick learner, he is alert, focused, and treat motivated. And he only weighs 26 pounds.

Pweeease?????


If you know of a suitable home for this sweet boy, who longs to bond with a human and to share his world with humans and canines, please contact Turtle Gardens.


You will make me vewy happy!
