Meet Ronan, a charming 4 year old Kelpie mix weighing in at a perfect 41 pounds, with a heart of gold. Brought to us as a stray who was never claimed, this sweet boy was a bit nervous when he was out on his own, but he truly thrives when he is in the company of his very own human. One look into those soft, soulful eyes and you can tell he is eagerly searching for his absolute best friend.

At 41 pounds, Ronan is the ideal size to be your ultimate companion. He has wonderful manners and would love to join you on just about any task, errand, or outing throughout your day. On top of that, he is a total cuddle bug who keeps his kennel clean and walks nicely on a leash with only a little enthusiastic pulling when he knows where you are headed. He has also shown great patience and respect when introduced to both other dogs and cats. If you are looking for a loyal, well behaved, and deeply affectionate buddy to share life with, Ronan is ready to be your trusty best friend.

All pets arrive spayed/neutered, dewormed, microchipped and vaccinated. Adoption fee for Ronan is a suggested minimum of $160 (more gratefully accepted). All pets are placed with a 30-day money-back trial period, to give pet and family enough time to discover any unknown allergies or other conflicts.

Can't come to Republic? Don't let that stop you! We have monthly transports to the Seattle area, delivering adopted pets to their new owners. If you can add a little to your donation to help us cover our volunteer driver's expenses, that would be great!
