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, and good with cats. She 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. 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. 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 and is ready to start the next chapter of her life with a forever family. All of our dogs are cleared by a licensed veterinarian and arrive to their adopters spayed/neutered with age-appropriate vaccines completed and are microchipped.
Training & Support
Kay Kay is still building confidence with the outside world, so she’ll need a patient adopter who understands this.
