Adoptable Pet of the Week: Keeper

Our Pet of the Week segment is brought to you in partnership with the Asheville Humane Society. Please consider adopting a homeless pet, and if you stop into the humane society, tell them hello from AshevilleBlog!

Meet Keeper! He is a one and a half year old Vizsla Mix. If we could pick one word to describe this energetic guy, it would be FUN! Keeper is favorite pick for the Humane Society’s Hiking Hounds and Urban Tails programs, in which volunteers take adoptable dogs out and about on hikes. He offers the best of both worlds… after an adventurous day of hiking, he would be a sweet boy to enjoy a quiet evening with you. Keeper is very smart and would love a person who would work with him on training, tricks or agility. He already knows sit and down! He even enjoys the company of his other dog “roommates” here in the Adoption Center. Keeper is a fantastic dog who has been with us for quite a while, just because he keeps getting overlooked. Please give him a chance and we know you’ll fall in love!

Meet this handsome fellow at Asheville Humane Society, located at 14 Forever Friend Lane in West Asheville near the WNC Farmer’s Market.
