Foster Insights/ Backstory: King and his littermates were about 6 weeks old when a foster went and picked them up from a very rough situation. The foster spent 2 days trying to catch them as they were scared and hiding. The foster had them a couple months until they started digging out of her yard and she could no longer keep
them safe. King is very sweet and loving, just a little unsure of new things to start with. He has a very sweet personality.
