Meet Kenai

Meet Kenai! A devoted almost three-year-old Australian Cattle Dog/Siberian Husky mix from Lake Forest, CA, whose icy blue eyes are as striking as his heart is loyal. At 40 pounds, Kenai is a medium-sized bundle of affection and charm, ready to be your constant companion. His tricolor coat is as vibrant as his personality, and his favorite spot is snuggled right between his people—preferably with a heated blanket for good measure. If you're looking for a partner in coziness, Kenai’s got you covered! Kenai thrives on quality time. Whether it’s cruising in the car, chewing on a bully stick, or simply being included in your daily tasks, he’s happiest when he’s by your side. He’s a quick learner and knows commands like sit, lay down, stay, and crate, thanks to his formal obedience training. In fact, he’s crate-trained and feels right at home there when left alone for short periods. Kenai is a sweet, loyal boy with his trusted people, but he needs a home where he can be the only pet. He can be reactive to strangers and other animals and has bitten out of fear in the past. Because of this, Kenai will need an experienced guardian who understands reactive dogs and can provide him with the guidance and structure he needs to feel safe. He’s not suited for a home with children or other pets but does well when he has his own space to thrive. Despite these challenges, Kenai is incredibly affectionate and playful with his trusted circle. He’s a constant companion who will stay by your side for every adventure, head scratch, or cozy night in. A securely fenced yard and a guardian willing to invest in his continued training and comfort will help Kenai blossom into the incredible companion he’s meant to be! If you’re a skilled dog lover who understands reactive dogs, Kenai is ready to reward your care with unwavering loyalty and endless love. Could you be the calm, steady home Kenai needs? To make sure that Kenai has a great start with his new family, we have a canine behaviorist available for a free consultation. Reach out to [email protected] to learn more about Kenai and take the first step toward a lifelong friendship! Is your home ready for a one-of-a-kind dog like Kenai?
