  Kiva, 5 months Female Shepherd / Husky  Mix
Kiva

UPDATE! Kiva is a five month old shepherd/husky mix female pup who came up from WV on 1/7 and will be available after 1/9/07. She was originally in a family with a 3 year child but after further evaluation, we would not place her with children as she's a bit "over the top" for children. She is extremely dominant with puppies her age and that could easily transfer to household members. She's best with dominant dogs older than her, otherwise she will bully dogs her own size or smaller. This is a dog desperate for training and attention. She responds well to training and has calmed down a lot since her arrival, but she's definitely a dog who needs a strong leader so an experienced adopter who understands dog training would be the best option for her. She does not like being crated (could be the husky in her), but can't be left unattended at this point in her life so will need some positive experiences in the crate and/or lots of time with her person outside the crate working on training. She is much more accepting of the crate than when she first arrived. She would do best in an adult home where someone is home most of the day. She will be at the Meet and Greet at Petco/Natick from noon until 2 on Saturday, 1/13/07.
