Adoption Spotlight: Axel
In the park, "our green-eyed gentleman, he with the adorable, floppy jowls, sits without being asked, takes his treats politely, and indulges me in a photoshoot replete, of course, with a yawn or two," writes an ACC volunteer. "And as we stop in front of his kennel, he suddenly hops up, giving me an unexpected hug."
