Kai is a mixed breed dog, around 7 months old and 40 lbs. Kai came from a rural Kentucky pound where he was brought with his 6 siblings at around 5 months old. They were under socialized pups. Since being rescued from the pound they are making progress every day. Most under socialized dogs need another dog to live with to help them with confidence and trust. Kai wants to trust, and he wants to be the happy go lucky pup he should be. Living with another dog will help Kai progress exponentially Kai is timid and reserved when you first meet him, but warms up to his people when you're slow and patient to gain his trust. Living in a house is new to Kai, coming from rural Kentucky, but he's doing great learning what all of life's noises are about. His natural instinct is to go and hide when something scares him, or is new, but he responds well when you lead him back to the "scary noise" to investigate. Kai responds great to other dogs and really comes out of his shell when he has a kind, playful 4 legged buddy to follow around. For this reason, we are seeking a home with another dog for Kai to hang out with. Kids are okay with Kai, but their loud noises can send him to the other room. He's currently in a foster home with a dog savvy 5 year old and she has been very respectful of his space and only engages with him when he is relaxed, and it’s been great. Kai would not do well with small kids (2-5) that couldn’t leave him alone. He is most relaxed when being brushed (loves it!) and going out for walks. Kai walks/runs like a dream! He’s constantly checking in, doesn’t pull at all and walks loose leash right next to your leg. He would make an excellent running/hiking/walking buddy. Kai needs a home where someone who has patience to help him gain confidence and come out of his shell. Having that other confident dog in the home will help with this too. The good thing is that he is very curious, so if he does spook, bringing him back to investigate what scared him seems to be help. Interested in adopti ng?
