My story

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

Meet KeeKo (18 lbs)
KeeKo is a small dog with a bite history, and we want to be transparent because safety matters. He can live safely in a home with the right person: someone willing to follow a training plan with support from our trainer/behavior specialist, MarLee, provided free of charge.

KeeKo is often affectionate, smart, and curious, but he has anxiety and shows it in ways many people aren’t used to. MarLee will help you learn KeeKo’s cues and communication so you can build trust and prevent risky moments.

We won’t sugarcoat it: KeeKo needs a special person, and his transition may not be easy. But he is truly worth it, and he will make the person who takes the time to know him very happy.

As one of our team members put it:

“The dogs with more challenging behavior have taught me the most… I would not trade the experience for anything.”
