Born on October 14, 2022, Kenna is a sweet, medium-energy girl who has so much love to give. When she first arrived, she was a little timid, but it did not take long for her true personality to shine. Once she feels comfortable, her adorable little nub tail wags so fast that it is impossible not to smile. Kenna walks beautifully on a leash and enjoys getting out for leisurely walks and spending time with her people. She does not need a fenced yard, making her a great fit for many different homes. Kenna seems to prefer the company of calmer, more laid-back dogs and would likely be happiest with a canine companion who shares her easygoing style. She would also do best with calm, respectful children who understand that she appreciates a gentle approach. If you are looking for a loving companion with a sweet personality and the cutest wagging nub tail around, Kenna is ready to find her forever home.
