About Whiskey
Meet Whiskey! This handsome staghound mix is about a year old and already showing the best traits of his breed. A trustworthy companion with a robust social personality, Whiskey is ready to share his wonderful life with you.
With his sprawling size, Whiskey knows how to keep things fun while still respecting the playstyles of any dog he encounters. He's a gentle giant, able to control his strength and size to suit the playfulness of other dogs. His capacity to interact and make friends with dogs of any size showcases that enormous heart of his.
When it comes to his human counterparts, Whiskey is just as welcoming. He greets everyone he meets with a wagging tail and an affectionate nuzzle. His friendliness extends to both adults and children, making him an excellent fit for families of all shapes and sizes.
However, his love for people doesn't mean he's only suited for large families - he'd also be a great companion for individuals who appreciate the company of large dogs. Whiskey presents the perfect blend of a playful partner and a faithful watchdog.
Adoption details
We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
