Dog of the Week: Kelby

Julia D Dog of the Week

Hi, I’m Kelby! I came to Last Hope with several other dogs and lived outside before I came here, but I found that living inside is so much nicer and I’m so smart that I learned right away what house manners are! I absolutely adore my foster mom and love to snuggle up with her on the couch and I get so excited when she comes home. It would be awesome if the people in my new family are home enough that I can bond with them sooner. I do great when I’m home alone – I’m a good girl! – but it will take me a long time to get adjusted if you’re gone a lot.  I could be the only dog or if properly introduced, I could be around male dogs; I live with a fun dog who’s a little bit bigger than me and though it took me a little while to adjust, I like him now.  I do okay with older cats who don’t try to run away from me, but if they run, I will chase them (sorry, the humans said something about me having some herding breed in me; I don’t know what that means). Since I am a little shy, I would prefer that kids in my forever home be at least ten years old and are able to respect my need for space. I can’t wait for my new family to find me!
