My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Important Facts About Kahlua
Dogs: Kahlua would prefer to be the only dog in his new home.
Cats: Unknown
Kids: Unknown
House-trained: Yes!
Other: Kahlua would do best in a SFH, townhouse, or garden-style apartment.


Are you ready to meet the coolest canine around? Meet Kahlua! Just like his namesake beverage, this pup is smooth, sophisticated and sweet. With a taste for the finer things in life, Kahlua knows how to appreciate the good stuff.

When it comes to mealtime, Kahlua prefers the softest of foods. He`s a connoisseur of comfort and enjoys nothing more than indulging in a delicious feast. But it`s not just about food for Kahlua – he`s also a real toy enthusiast! He loves to engage in a good play session, and intends to keep curating his growing toy collection.

And let`s not forget the most important thing – Kahlua knows he`s a good boy, and he loves to hear it! He thrives on positive reinforcement and will do anything to keep that praise coming.

Now, while Kahlua is one laid-back pup, he`s not a fan of loud noises. He prefers the peace and quiet of a cozy home where he can relax and unwind. And when it comes to outdoor adventures, he`s more of a leaf-carrier than a stick-fetcher. Sticks may be too heavy to carry, but a nice, crisp leaf? That`s worth all the effort in the world!
