Kelly Kelly is a 56 pound, 7-year-old German Shepherd Dog mix. His hearing and his vision are both somewhat compromised. Kelly is happy to just be around people. He will sit and offer you his paw, expecting you to hold it for him, or he will come over and nuzzle your hand until you pet him. Anytime you are around, he will stay mostly within sight, with some wandering about. He will periodically come over and ask for some attention and love. He is not a high-energy boy, but he still has some pep in his step. Kelly enjoys being around other dogs, and meets them in a relaxed way. He wants to play with some dogs, whereas others he just greets and then he moves on. He is interested in cats enough that he should probably be in a home without cats. Kelly loves chewing plush toys to bits very quickly, and has shown similar interest in at least one pillow. He'll chew real bones and nylabones too, which takes longer. His foster dad says: "He doesn't care who you are, what you're doing, he says he loves you. What I see as the perfect fit is, someone who doesn't care too much about their stuff, probably has other dogs but not cats, and who is home a lot to go do hikes and other outdoors things. He really enjoys being outside, but not without his persons. In this way, I'd say he's a very American Pioneer dog, he's tough, compassionate, and likes to get dirty and go smell the roses." Kelly came to POMDR from Monterey County Animal Services where he was picked up as a stray in Soledad. If you would like to meet Kelly, fill out our online adoption application.
