KENYA
The girl who survived it all and still greets the world like it’s her best friend.
Kenya raised her entire Lion King litter under a pile of outdoor storage containers after being abandoned while pregnant. A rescuer spotted her just in time and got her and all eight puppies to safety. The pups are settled into their adoptive homes. Now it’s finally her turn.
She’s social, affectionate, and genuinely loves people. Kenya thinks every human might be her new best friend and she’s usually right. With a proper introduction, she does well with dogs who can match her energy and play style.
She’s kennel trained, working on her leash skills, and soaking up every bit of structure and consistency she’s been missing. Kenya has a lot of love to give and zero desire to go back to surviving under trash piles. She wants a home, a routine, and people who won’t give up on her again.
If you want a dog who has fought her way through the worst and still shows up joyful, this is your girl.
This dog is up to date on vaccinations and is spayed. (Please note: Puppies under 3 months old may not be sterilized prior to adoption. If this is the case, your adoption coordinator will provide guidance on the process.)
To adopt or learn more about this dog, you must complete an adoption application, which can be found on our website: www.sandypawsrescue.com.
PLEASE READ:
• If a dog or puppy is listed, they are currently available for adoption. However, they may already be pending an adoption, and their profile may not yet reflect this.
• All information is accurate to the best of our knowledge as of the posting date.
• Unless explicitly stated, Sandy Paws Rescue does not guarantee the breed of any dog. Breeds listed are educated guesses made by shelter staff, volunteers, or veterinarians. Many of our dogs are mixed breeds, often with pit bull-type genetics, resulting in a wide variety of physical traits and temperaments.
Our dogs come from various situations, such as kill shelters, owner surrenders, or as strays. It is likely both parents were mixed breeds as well.
Sandy Paws Rescue does not have a public shelter in Massachusetts. Our dogs reside in private foster homes or boarding kennels in the South until adopted. Many dogs are spoken for prior to transport or release from state-mandated isolation.
For information on adoption fees, procedures, or FAQs, visit our website: www.sandypawsrescue.com.
The FIRST step in adopting from Sandy Paws Rescue is to submit a completed adoption application.
