King, oh King, what a magnificent dog you are! His majesty, King awaits patiently in his kennel. He is imposing at 93 pounds, well nourished and healthy looking. He has been very well cared for by his previous owner until his recent abandonment. King was found with a limp. He has recovered since then and walks now quite well and beautifully on the leash. No pulling with King, he is a very well behaved dog who heels, sits on command and knows who is the leader. King is without say very much housetrained. King might be royalty but he is also very sweet and likes to sit very close to his caretaker for hugs and kisses. He is actually a very sweet dog who in private behaves like a gentle pussycat... Shut... fingers on the lips... we will not tell. King seems fine with other dogs met in the street or up close in the yard. His stance is proud which is expected from a dog this size and this age. I am sold to King, a gorgeous , friendly and well mannered dog. He will make an excellent, obedient and faithful companion given a chance. King is waiting for you at the Manhattan Care Center.
