What a sweet boy I am! I’m Khris, a compact little guy you need to meet.
I’m a 6-year-old housebroken male Papillon. I’m a nice fit for a lap at about 10 pounds. I’m not quite sure how I wound up here, but lucky for you, I’m searching for someone to love me. Are you the lucky one?
I’m a sweet, gentle, calm dog who loves walks and treats. I get along with most other dogs and can live with older children. I’m great on a leash, so we can cruise the neighborhood and show me off. Let’s start today!
I’m available for adoption at Tri County Humane Society, a no-kill animal shelter at 21287 Boca Rio Road in Boca Raton, west of Florida’s Turnpike and one block south of Glades Road. The shelter is open for adoptions from 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday.
Adoption fees for companion animals are $85 and up. Animals are heartworm-tested and up-to-date on vaccinations. Included in the adoption fee are a free pet-insurance plan for 60 days and one year of free office visits to Boca Midtowne Animal Hospital. The shelter has puppies and kittens, too.
