Kenosha.com Pet of the Week: Odin

Kenosha.com’s Pet of the Week is Odin, a happy and handsome dog looking for his next loving home at the Wisconsin Humane Society Kenosha Campus. At about 79 pounds, this big boy will use every bit of himself to show affection to the people lucky enough to meet him.

Odin is four and a half years old, and the shelter lists him at four years and six months. He loves being around people, exploring the outdoors, and making the most out of every single day. Staff at the Wisconsin Humane Society describe him as affectionate and eager to connect — the kind of dog who leans in for attention and does not do anything halfway.

Odin is a big dog with an even bigger heart. His nearly 80-pound frame is all muscle and enthusiasm, and he channels that energy into affection for the humans around him. For an active family or an individual who enjoys spending time outdoors, a dog like Odin can be a devoted walking, hiking, and adventuring companion who is always ready for the next outing.

Every dog shows love a little differently, and for Odin it is all in. Whether he is greeting a familiar face or settling in beside someone new, he brings the same full-hearted enthusiasm to the moment. That combination of size and sweetness is exactly why he stands out, and it is why his future family will want to be ready to match his energy with plenty of walks, playtime, and attention.

Because he is a larger, strong dog, Odin will do best with people who can offer him consistent structure and plenty of chances to burn off energy. Big dogs like Odin sometimes wait a little longer for the right person to come along, simply because they need a home with enough room and routine to help them thrive. For the family that can offer that, the reward is a loyal companion who gives back far more affection than he asks for. The team at the Wisconsin Humane Society knows him well and can talk through his personality and needs, helping you decide whether he is the right fit for your household before you ever take him home.

Odin is available for adoption at the Wisconsin Humane Society Kenosha Campus, located at 7811 60th Ave in Kenosha. Like all dogs at WHS, he has already been neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, so he is all set and ready to go home with the right family.

Adoption hours at the Kenosha Campus are Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m., and the campus is closed for adoptions on Thursday and Sunday. Because shelter animals come and go quickly, it is a good idea to call ahead at 262-694-4047 to confirm that Odin is still available before you make the trip.

If Odin sounds like the companion you have been waiting for, you can learn more about him and the adoption process on the Wisconsin Humane Society adoption page. His adoption fee is $199, which helps cover a portion of the care WHS provides to the many animals waiting for homes.

Adopting from the Wisconsin Humane Society also means Odin arrives with his core veterinary care already handled. His neuter surgery, vaccinations, and microchip are complete, which saves his new family several early trips to the vet and gives Odin a healthy head start in his new home.

You are also welcome to stop by the Kenosha Campus during adoption hours to meet Odin in person and see whether the two of you are a great match. Bringing home a dog is a meaningful commitment, and the WHS team is there to help make sure Odin lands in exactly the right home — one where he can share every one of those affectionate 79 pounds for years to come.
