Story
For Dolly, she is an active breed but loves to snuggle on the couch. She loves anyone she meets and loves to go to daycare and play. She is a very loyal dog and just wants to be with you. We rescued Dolly from a bad situation ourselves, without a rescue. She will be 2 years old as of this summer. She is AKC registered and has all of her paperwork. We rescued Dolly in November of 2024. We are looking for a home that has the time to give to Dolly for training specifically - kennel time. Her new owners would preferably be home often or have the ability to take her to daycare. She craves activities and loves to be with people. She loves kids, other dogs, and loves treats and food. She is just looking to be someone's BFF, she is so loyal and all about her people. Unfortunately we are not home enough to give her the training and time she needs, and we did not come to this decision lightly. We LOVE Dolly, she deserves more than what we are currently doing for her now.

She is potty trained, kennel trained (needs a safe space to eat), and is doing great with apartment living. She has been around cats and dogs and done great. She loves snuggles and toy play time! She’s done great on car rides too! To apply to meet Athena Grace fill out an application at www.k911foundation.com/adopt  May 6, 2025, 11:56 am

Freya is a 1-2 year old cattle dog mix. She loves adults, kids and other dogs! New situations can be scary though so Freya needs a few minutes to explore new places before she’s comfortable. Freya is potty and kennel trained! A secure fence is required for this sweet girl.    To arrange a meet and greet or chat with her foster please fill out an application at www.k911foundation.com/adoptMarch 8, 2025, 7:53 am

Story
Athena proves how different dogs can act pending environmental or health changes. Athena loves to use her nose, she LOVES her people / family. She's made it clear shes not a "city" dog. She does far better in less traffic / less chaotic situations. She can also climb a tree or two. Athena has done great with me, my dad and my two sons. She has been fine with all of our barn cats. After an adjustment, she's done fine with dogs through neighboring fence lines as well. She has played well with two other dogs at separate times. Athena loves her treat puzzles and snuffle bowls. She loves having a routine and boundaries. She gets SO excited to see me and does the boot scoot zoomie across the yard.   Athena loves me so much that if I leave the yard with her in it, she climbs out. I would love to find her an understanding home without big dog park, visitor, leash walk expectations. She's completely content in her home and her backyard. Athena is ready for a foster or adopter! Please apply to meet her today. k911foundation.com/adopt November 3, 2024, 9:07 pm

Gator

Details
Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
AdoptionGator was surrendered due to change in the family circumstances. He is a well behaved and friendly guy. He loves humans, but does not do well with the unpredictability of little kiddos though, so only kids over 6 please. He has done well with the dogs in his foster home with a slower intro. He is potty and kennel trained although the kennel isn't required after settling in. He grew up on a farm and protected the yard from squirrels and raccoons, so we are also looking for a home with no small animals! If you think Gator could be a good fit, please fill out an application at www.k911foundation.com/adopt. February 21, 2025, 12:50 pm
