About Kay Kay

Meet Kay Kay — short for Kangaroo Kevin! 🦘💛 And trust us… the name fits perfectly. Kay Kay is a young female Kelpie mix weighing in around 25–30 pounds of pure bounce, energy, and love. According to her foster mom, she earned her nickname because she literally jumps and bounces off her foster mom’s back like a little kangaroo. If she were human, she’d probably have an ADHD diagnosis and be proudly thriving with it. 😂 She'd be perfect for agility training! This sweet girl LOVES playing with her dog friends, zooming around the backyard, chewing on her Benebone, and being wherever the fun is. Kay Kay is house trained, kennel trained, good with big and small dogs, good with cats, and is sweet, playful, and affectionate.

Ideal Home

Kay Kay is happiest and most confident at home — especially when she has a backyard to run in and another dog buddy to wrestle and play with. Because she is a herding breed and still learning boundaries, she is not recommended for homes with young children.

Ongoing Health

She recently completed her heartworm injections. All of our dogs are cleared by a licensed veterinarian for transport and arrive to their adopters spayed/neutered with age-appropriate vaccines completed and are microchipped.

Training & Support

While she’s completely comfortable in the house and yard, she can still be a little nervous walking on a leash in busy public places. She’ll need a patient adopter who understands she’s still building confidence with the outside world.

Application Details:

  • Applications start by contacting us through Wags.
  • Once submitted, we will reach out to approved applicants by phone.

Transporation

This dog is currently in South Mississippi. Local and out-of-town adopters are welcome. For out of town adopters, we offer virtual meet-and-greets and can arrange transport to many states in the Northeast. Transport stops arrive early on a Saturday morning in Hagerstown.
