My name is Kishi!

Hi there, I’m Kishi Daisy!

I am a 7 year old female, spayed Catahoula dog.  I weigh 45 pounds.  If you are not familiar with the breed, I historically was bred in Louisiana as a hunting and herding dog.  I form a quick, strong bond with my human.

My favorite thing to do is to go on leash walks with my foster mom.  I would be a great hiking and running partner.  I am a middle-aged dog, but I still have a lot of spunk and a lot of good years left.  

I am house trained and kennel trained.  I live with 3 other dogs and 3 cats in my foster home.  True to my breed, I can be somewhat aloof with other dogs.  I would prefer to live in a home as an “only dog.”  I have a very strong bond with my human and prefer not to share my person with other dogs in the home.

I have a pretty strong prey drive when I am out of the house.  Watch out, Squirrel Nutkin!  But I can live fine with indoor, dog-savvy cats.  Outdoor cats are fair game.

My ideal home would be one with a consistent, regular routine with firm boundaries set by my person, and not too much noise or chaos.  I have said hello to some kids in my travels, and I am fine as long as they are respectful of me and my space.  I would do better in a home without small children.

When I am home in the house with my person, I settle quickly.  I love to snooze either near to you (I would be a great home-office assistant) or in my dog bed.  My foster mom kennels me at night and when she is not home during the day.  The kennel is not my favorite place, and I have been left out for several hours at a time without a problem.

I’d love to meet you!  I will likely give you a gentle sniff and kiss on the fingertips.  It’s my sweet way of saying hello.  If you are interested in meeting me, please fill out an application for adoption and my foster mom will get in touch with you:   https://bit.ly/RRAdoptionApplication
