My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

KayDee is one lovable big galoot! Only about 11 months old, this girl is ready to learn and make her people happy. KayDee came to us without a lot of obedience training but has already proven her intelligence and willingness to learn.

KayDee does great in a car though she may need encouragement to jump into one. On lead she has quickly gotten used to heeling though she occasionally needs reminders, especially when something startles her or she's excited. She has learned quite a few other simple commands and simply needs her new family to continue with her training.

KayDee gets along great with the large dogs in her foster home, though she is middle of the road with dominance, and her playful/pushy attitude upsets some of the dogs. Little dogs are not a problem with her either but with her size and puppy personality she can be a bit overwhelming to some. She is great with cats.

KayDee knows when something is amiss in her house or yard and will alert you to it. She would prefer to be with her people, though, and does not like to be left outside alone for long. She does not suffer from separation anxiety, though, and sleeps in a crate through the night without so much as a sound.

We are looking for a home for KayDee where the people have a lot of experience with herding breeds and are committed to continue her training and and give her a job to do. If you think you might just be KayDee's new family, please read onto learn how to start the application process and meet this beautiful young thing.

All potential adopters are expected to complete an application and provide pictures of their yard, patio, and/or balcony making sure we can see the fence line and/or railing. The application can be completed and submitted from our website - throwmeabonedogrescue.org - and is found under Resources. Applications will be reviewed for approval before setting an appointment to come meet and possibly adopt the dog of interest. In addition, those who live in a rental property are expected to provide proof that they are allowed to have a dog where they live.

Each of our rescued dogs has been de-wormed if necessary, de-flea'd (with topical treatment if old enough, and by medicated bath if too young), spayed/neutered, microchipped, is up to date on shots, and has been fully examined by a veterinarian. In addition, each adopted dog comes with a starter baggie of the food it has been eating, a few treats for training purposes, a rawhide chew, a lead and collar, and a folder containing pertinent records.
