Beacon

Position: Team, Point

Age: 5

Beacon is one of the biggest dogs in the Kennel.

Growing up in the Twin Cities (Minneapolis-St. Paul), Beacon lived every bit like a city dog—he even tried kayaking!

Beacon LOVES people (particularly kids), and is always hankering to go.

'Adopt' Beacon ... and support GoNorth!
