Come meet Kalmia and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (July 28th) from 12-3 pm at the Petsmart in Silver Spring (12020 Cherry Hill Rd, Silver Spring, MD 20904)!
Name: Kalmia Best Guess for Breed: Hound/Foxhound Mix
Best Guess for Age: 1.5 years as of 3/4/22 SEX: Female
Approximate Weight: 43 pounds
Gets Along With: Other dogs!!! We haven't seen Kalmia with cats, but she can be tested
Currently Living at: DC area foster home
Special adoption considerations: Kalmia is shy and needs to go to a home with a welcoming resident dog. We would be cautious placing Kalmia in a home with children under 12 years old because young kids can often scare shy dogs with their level of energy or noise. Children would need to be supervised closely to not leave doors open and should never walk the dog without an adult holding the leash. We would be happy to discuss this more in depth with any applicant.

Kalmia is Looking For: My name is Kalmia!! I got out of the shelter and am now in a foster home but am still dreaming of my forever home. I heard that once I get adopted I'd get to live with them forever (and I hear there would be interesting food smells!). I hear I could lie on a couch and just sniff. Sounds like heaven. And I could take a lot of walks, and do some sniffing on those, and maybe even some runs if you're interested (I'm good at running). And when we're done walking (or maybe even hiking?), we could come home and sit on the couch again and cuddle and watch TV! You can even pick what we watch. Maybe I could even have a few toys, and a nice bed to call my own. And I'd love to take some obedience classes and make you proud of how well I can behave, and go to the dog park and make some friends and do some more sniffing there!! What do you say? Are you the family for me??
What My Foster Says About Me: Are you looking for a gentle, friendly, loving pup who will melt your heart? Do you want a dog who is calm inside, but also playful? Are you looking to have a best friend meet you at the door with love when you come home? Look no further than Kalmia! Kalmia is a wonderful girl who is extremely gentle and friendly with everyone she meets. Kalmia would love a backyard. After all, she is a hound and sniffing is her jam! She is a little scared of the outdoors so she needs a family with a resident dog who can help her build confidence and teach her how wonderful a leash walk can be. She has been working on her house manners and while we cannot guarantee she is housebroken she has not had an accident in the house and seems to know to do her business outside. Kalmia is that very rare mix of calm and chill with a little bit of playful. When you hold her adorable face in your hands, she will melt your heart. Kalmia will be a wonderful addition to your family, and you will not be able to imagine how you lived without her!
Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training.
