    If you are looking for a loyal, sweet-natured shadow to share your sunny spots with, Klaus is your guy! This charming little gentleman has a heart twice the size of his body. Klaus is a truly sweet boy with a deeply loving personality. He absolutely adores being around his people and always wants to be a part of the action—whether that’s supervising your morning routine or curling up right next to you for an evening movie.

    When he’s not keeping you company, you can find him mastering the art of relaxation, either cuddling on the couch or finding the perfect patch of sunlight on the floor for a warm nap.

    Leash & Training

    Klaus is a dream on a leash! He does wonderfully with one or two walks a day to sniff around and explore the neighborhood. He has a wonderful sense of curiosity about the world, but he’s incredibly attentive and comes right back when he is called.

    Home & Family Preferences

    • Other Pets: Klaus is a peaceful guy who is respectful of cats and other dogs. However, he’s a bit of a king at heart and would probably prefer a home where he can be the only dog to soak up all your affection.
    • Children: He is good with kids! However, because of his small stature, he needs a home with gentle children who understand he cannot be played with roughly.
    • The Perfect Environment: Klaus is looking for a comfortable, slow-paced home where he can relax, feel safe, and be a cherished companion for the rest of his life.

    Health & Medical Note

    Klaus recently underwent a full dental extraction because his teeth were badly infected and falling out. The great news? He is now completely pain-free, healed up, and feeling happier than ever! Because he no longer has teeth, he will need to eat a high-quality canned/wet food diet for the rest of his life. He considers this a major upgrade anyway!

    Ready to open your heart to Klaus? If you can offer this sweet boy the gentle, loving retirement home he deserves, please send fill out an adoption application! Let’s get Klaus into the forever home where he will be truly pampered. đź’›

    Approved applications are required to meet Klaus in his foster home. Klaus’s adoption fee is $500.

    KAAP adoptions include a reference check and home visit to make sure our dogs are placed in safe, loving, and well-matched homes. Please note that adoptions are not first come, first served—we reserve the right to select the applicant we feel is the best fit. Applications will only be accepted from the West Kootenay region at this time.
