Story
Rescued: 3/17/2023 Age at time of rescue: 3 days old Current weight: 42 pounds Meet Kimmy – Gentle, Quiet, and Learning What Love Feels Like Kimmy is a sweet, soft-natured girl who came to us with very little socialization. Because of her past, she was initially uncomfortable with touch, but with training and patience she is slowly learning to allow gentle handling at her own pace. She is not aggressive at all — just unsure — and she quietly navigates the world while building trust one step at a time. What Makes Kimmy Special • Naturally well-behaved and calm • Housebroken and keeps her space clean • Walks nicely on a leash and enjoys peaceful walks • Knows “sit” and “down” and is learning “place” • Loves Benebones, antlers, and quiet time • Non-aggressive and very respectful of her surroundings • A gentle soul who observes the world with curiosity What Kimmy Needs Kimmy does best with a confident, friendly dog to show her the world is safe. A calm home, patient adopter, and slow, positive experiences will help her continue to gain confidence and trust. She may never be a cuddly lap dog, but she can be a wonderful companion for someone who appreciates a quiet presence and steady routines. Who Kimmy Is Looking For Kimmy is searching for someone who is comfortable going slow and earning trust over time. A home with a stable dog and an understanding heart would be ideal for her. Ready to Meet Kimmy? If you believe love can be built gently and patiently, Kimmy may be the perfect match. We would love to introduce you and help her take the next brave step toward her forever home. Thank you for considering a dog in need! Please go to our website at www.satoheartrescue.org to download our application. The adoption fee is $500.00 which can be paid in cash or check. We look forward to working with you! PLEASE DO NOT send an INQUIRY THROUGH ADOPT-A-PET. Due to the volume of emails we receive, we will not be able to reply.
