Kellan

Meet Kellan, the adorable, goofy 1-year-old mixed breed dog; he is deaf, but he doesn't seem to let that slow him down. He's a real charmer with a heart-melting smile. Kellan is incredibly food motivated and enjoys playing with toys. Kellan is potty trained, crate trained, and is learning more every day. His playful and quirky nature shines through as he crawls around on his belly, showing off his funny personality. One of Kellan's favorite things to do is play catch (with himself!). Kellan is dog social, loves to play, and would love to meet any potential fur siblings before going home. Kellan is deaf so needs a family that will be willing to think outside the box as far as training goes. Kellan needs structure and routine because being a teenager is hard. His foster family is working with him on hand signals and he is learning them quickly. He knows to watch his person for guidance and has already learned to sit and stay. (read how well it's going in the foster notes below) He loves the other dogs in his foster home and enjoys playing with them. He would do better in a home without cats. Kellan loves his people and is a joy to be around. He is a smart boy who is ready to learn and give all the love you want from a furry friend. This is a dog you just have to meet!! His foster family has SO MANY good things to say about him. We've included some of that here, but to get all the details, email [email protected] to learn more or meet this special guy! His foster mom says: If I were to ask Kellan what he would want in a future home, his Christmas list would include... doggy friends who love the outdoors and want to play all the time... Everything is a game and Kellan has lots of sparkling energy for fun! He loves roaming through the woods, sniffing everything and chasing birds and squirrels if they're nearby. Kellan's best life would include an active human and canine friends with lots of space to roam. In the evenings he dreams of sleeping cuddled up with his human companion and is a very polite bed mate. Kellan is deaf, but he does not consider that a disability, instead his human and canine companions become his leader and he is content to follow along. Kellan does not know a stranger, he loves everybody, but he can get a bit mouthy in play so he probably would do better around older kids. Compensating for his hearing, Kellan has a well developed sense of sight...[he] likes to watch dogs on TV. He often gets closer to the TV he sees a dog playing or running. Kellan has been with KCPP for over 30 days. We want our longer stay dogs to find a forever home quickly, so his ADOPTION FEE IS WAIVED!
