K'Wail would thrive in an adult-only home with a calm and quiet environment. He needs a patient adopter who will give him time to acclimate to his new surroundings. Due to his fearfulness, it's essential that new experiences and introductions are done slowly, allowing K'Wail to approach at his own pace.
Good with other pets?
K'Wail has previously lived with three other dogs and was friendly and outgoing with them. He enjoys respectful interactions and is mindful of other pets, making him a good fit for a multi-dog household. He has no known experience with cats.
Good with children?
Due to K'Wail's fearfulness, he would do best in a home without children under the age of 13. While he was friendly around an 11-year-old in his previous home, his current behavior suggests he needs a more predictable, adult-only environment.
How is my health?
K'Wail is in good health, though he was nervous and tense during his intake exam. He allowed the exam to be completed, indicating that he can tolerate handling when approached gently.
How are my leash manners?
K'Wail walks on a loose leash and has not shown reactivity to humans or dogs during his walks. However, more testing in varied environments may be needed to better understand his leash manners in different situations.
What is my behavior assessment?
K'Wail is described as shy and fearful, but he warms up with gentle, patient handling. He prefers to approach people on his own terms and may seek attention once he feels comfortable. His energy level is medium, and he would benefit from daily mental and physical stimulation. While he can be nervous in new situations, he can blossom in a home that respects his boundaries and gives him time to feel safe.
