Meet Kennedy! This adorable 4-week-old Australian Shepherd/Cattle Dog mix is a true survivor, rescued from a euthanasia list along with her brave mama, Liberty, and five siblings. She's named in honor of her second chance at life, and she's ready to embark on a lifetime of adventures with her forever family. Kennedy is a tiny but mighty pup, blossoming in foster care and expected to be ready for travel in 4-5 weeks after her next round of puppy vaccines. Her mama, a sweet 45-pound cattle dog mix, has been a wonderful caregiver, and Kennedy has clearly inherited her gentle and loving nature.
Kennedy is experiencing all the joys of puppyhood, from wobbly steps to playful tumbles and cozy naps. Her sweet, curious, and affectionate personality is shining through as she discovers the world and loves to be close to her people. Having been given a second chance, Kennedy is now surrounded by love and care in foster, learning what it means to be cherished.
