My story

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

Meet Kathana!

Kathana came to us from the San Diego Humane Society on March 11th. She is 8 years old and weighs 16 lbs. She is a sweet and friendly girl who enjoys attention - being petted, sitting in laps, and cuddling!

As you can see in the video, Kathana loves playing fetch. She also loves going on our weekly hikes, after going 3 miles on the trail, she still has pep in her step. Kathana is lots of fun!

Kathana recently went on a 3-day Frosted Field trip with volunteers and earned a rave review!

"Kathana was a perfect little companion this weekend! We took her on long walks in Carlsbad, for a night out on the town in Encintas, to the Batiquitos Lagoon and the San Elijo Lagoon & Annie's Canyon Trail, and more.

Kathana loves long walks, snuggling, and food. If you get on the couch, she's right there with you and happy to relax by your side. If you head out for an outing, she is super psyched about wherever you take her.

Kathana almost seems to be in awe about the world around her. She has great stamina, and after an hour or more of brisk walking, she still had energy to spare. She handled a variety of outdoor environments well - a busy Saturday night street scene, a skate park, nature trails, a rocky beach, day, night, rain, wind.

Kathana slept through the night and had good indoor manners, too. She always waited until she was outside to go potty. While she was reactive to other dogs during our walks, distraction with a treat sometimes worked.

Kathana is an incredibly affectionate and happy-go-lucky girl, and we're so grateful for the long weekend we got to spend with her."

As much as Kathana LOVES people, she does not enjoy the company of other dogs and would prefer a forever home where she is the only pet.

Kathana just left on a two-week Frosted Fling, so we can learn more about what she is like in a home. Check back soon for an update!
