Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Capitan is just the best friend you could ask for.  He is a medium sized dog, probably around 40lbs now.  He loves everyone, great with dogs, loves kids, doesn't really even notice cats.  He does have lots of energy and will need a family who is able to give him a way to use it like long walks and lots of play time.  He is crate trained, learning basic commands, still perfecting housebreaking and how this leash thing works.  The reason he is taking more time to learn is that he is mostly deaf and blind.  He did have to have one eye removed and has limited sight out of his other eye, but he gets around just fine so he does have vision.  He also is mostly deaf but hears some loud, high pitched noises.  We have an amazing trainer who volunteered her time to work with him and will also help his new owner learn his commands and how to continue his training.  He really is such a sweet boy who just wants all the love.  He is fixed, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, healthy, and ready to go.   His adoption fee is $400 To adopt Capitan, fill out an application at www.kakf.org/formsVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 21, 2026, 10:12 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. ⭐️ Noah ⭐️ Noah is a 9-month-old Border Collie/Lab mix… and 100% lovable goofball. This fuzzy little lovebug is eager to please and just waiting for his forever person or family to choose him. What’s he like? Great with other dogs and loves to play. Equal parts Velcro pup and independent entertainer — he’ll happily dig through the toy basket and keep himself busy. Knows not to chew furniture or shoes, though socks and dryer sheets are his weakness (he’ll drop them when asked!). Can get overstimulated in chaotic environments and prefers slow introductions. He may take a minute to warm up, but he’s worth the wait. Once he trusts you, he is the sweetest snuggle bug who just wants to be close to his person. What can he do? Kennel trained (sleeps through the night and goes in on command). Fully potty trained with subtle but clear cues. Excellent in the car — calm, comfy, and observant. Recently graduated a 10-day obedience program! He knows “wait,” “place,” “come,” “heel,” loose-leash walking, and more. His perfect match? ✔️ Someone committed to continuing his training and staying consistent. ✔️ A confident, dog-savvy adopter who can guide him and help build his confidence. No cats please! Noah is smart, silly, and full of heart — he just needs someone ready to have his back forever.
