Happy New Year’s Eve!! We’ve got some AMAZING news to conclude 2021: Mango has finally been adopted after being with us for over 1.5 years!

Mango was an owner-surrender that came from an environment where he was not provided with the proper boundaries, structure, and leadership that he needed. Mango had some aggression and could be unpredictable at times so we knew we had to be careful about whom he was placed with. He needed to build a strong relationship with trust and direction, which he found with Andrew (@rescuetrainrepeat) and Ken who fostered him! Over time, Mango has developed a deep bond with his foster family and he is progressing remarkably well. His foster family has also fallen in love with him so they officially adopted him!

Mango feels right at home with his pack that consists of Loui, Jolie, Ruby, Miro, and their dads, Andrew and Ken! All the pups are rescues (three KK9R alum in total) and thriving together. We want to thank Andrew and Ken, as well as everyone else that has rooted for Mango. Congrats to Mango and his forever family! You can see more photos by checking our Instagram post and by following Mango on Instagram. (Thank you so much to Jen from @thewaysofthedog for taking these beautiful photos to celebrate Mango’s adoption!)

We hope Mango’s adoption story has inspired to join the dog rescue movement! ⁠Our adoption radius currently includes select areas within New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Washington D.C., Maryland, and Massachusetts.
