Kit

My story

Meet Kit, a Great Pyrenees/Doberman mix born approx 9/29/22. She has made such strides in the last year. She is great outside & is almost always the first one to come in when called. She now has a perfect routine but will still need time to find a new routine, as she is very routine based. She knows where her kennel is and takes 3 laps around before going in to eat but prefers the couch or your bed for sleeping. She recently attended an adoption event & was very curious about all the people & especially children. Her nose is her guide & she will come up behind you on the couch and sniff your hair or neck. She has never snapped at people & is really friendly, just in her own slow way. This is a huge milestone because she was so skittish when arriving into rescue that she would run away anytime she was approached or called to come in. She loves getting pets & has been enjoying belly rubs. Kit loves other dogs but tends to be very dominant and a little snappy when meeting new dogs for the first time. She would be fine with a dog that is less dominant or with a patient alpha, who will gently show her who’s in charge. She would also be fine as an only dog. She absolutely loves puppies & is very gentle, so the perfect scenario may be that she is the first dog & another is added at some point. She cannot be around small animals, such as birds, cats, or chickens, as her prey drive is HIGH. She definitely needs a fenced yard because her absolute favorite thing to do is run! She is not a fence jumper, so any fence that is 4 feet or higher is great for her.  Her recall is improving & when she barks, she does respond to a firm, “leave it” or “no bark”. She does bark at neighbors or dogs next door, but she can be redirected. She will frolic & play for as long as she can. She loves long walks, soft toys & sleeping on the couch or in bed. She doesn’t need to be kenneled although when she is in new places, she may chew on things she is not supposed to, such as socks, pillows, and cushions. She has not done this in a very long time but it is a nervous response for her. She would love a home where she could have more one on one attention.  Due to her cautious nature, older, respectful kids would be best. She will take time and patience to adjust to a new environment but when she does the little things will reward you tenfold. She's been in rescue long enough and would love a home of her own!       Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, alter, prepaid microchip, dewormed, Rabies vaccine, DAPP vaccine, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX , flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue. Adoption fee: $525.00 Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 17, 2025, 12:19 am
