POW! Short, Sweet Earl Is Back on The Market!
“Petting, scratching, and cuddling a dog could be as soothing to the mind and heart as deep meditation and almost as good for the soul as prayer.”

His name is Earl. And he’s back on the adoption floor at KCAC!
Just Earl. Short, sweet and to the point, just like he is, short, sweet and to the point.
Earl
What you see is what you get with Earl, a small Miniature Pinscher around 7-years-old who came to us as a stray.
How did he survive out there, so little, so naïve, so afraid. What did he do that warranted becoming a stray?
He’s friendly, loves meeting both people and other dogs, loves getting carried around and probably would be just fine with wearing some fashionable outerwear occasionally.
Earl’s energy level can sometimes be a little over the top, which is why he was initially taken off the adoption floor. After his neuter surgery he was so excited to possibly get a new home, he forgot to take it easy, but after some well-deserved TLC and a lot of rest, he is completely healed and ready to meet his new forever family.
Earl will need plenty of playtime to keep him happy and maybe a training class or two would help slow him down a bit. A tired dog is always more ready to focus and learn.
And of course, Earl will always be up for some petting and cuddling sessions.
In this new year, as you make your resolutions, add Just Earl to your “must meet” list!
