Each week, the Independent highlights an animal available for adoption at Baypath Humane Society in Hopkinton. This week’s adoptable animal is 6-month-old Krypto.

Here is Baypath’s description of Krypto:

“Krypto is a playful and loving pup with a heart of gold. This handsome white dog may be deaf or mostly deaf, but that doesn’t slow him down one bit! Krypto is a smart and active guy who loves learning, playing and making the most of every day. He’s already a pro at ‘sit’ and is eager to learn more tricks with his new family.

“Krypto thrives in the company of other dogs and needs to go to a home with a canine companion. He follows their lead, enjoys snuggling up with them, and is happiest when he has a buddy to play and explore with. He even made the journey to Baypath with his best friend, Arlo, and they do everything together!

“Krypto is a fan of walks with his friends, romping around with toys and earning tasty treats for being such a good boy. Because he can be a bit jumpy when he’s excited, Krypto would do best in a home with teens or adults who can help him continue learning good manners. His social and affectionate personality makes him a joy to be around, and he’s ready to bring endless fun and love to his forever family.”
