Meet Kai
Kai is a handsome Shepherd who is ready to find the security and comfort he’s been missing.
He can be unsure and a little restless at first while he takes everything in, but once he begins to relax, his gentle nature really shines through. Kai forms strong bonds with his people and enjoys quiet affection once he feels safe. He hasn’t experienced much of the outside world and will need continued guidance and reassurance as he adjusts to home life. He would suit a calm, experienced household with older teens (13+).
Kai could be rehomed with Maya in a very experienced home willing to manage their relationship.
If separated, another calm dog companion is strongly recommended and likely essential for his long-term success.
With patience and kindness, Kai will grow into a deeply devoted and loving companion. 💙
How our Adoption Process Works
Step 1) Preparation
Read our Adoption Philosophy and make sure your views on dog ownership align with ours. Please read this entire page to make sure you are ready for adoption day.
Step 2) APPLY
Browse available dogs online, review our dog sociability matrix and then complete an adoption questionnaire.
Step 3) ADOPTION
7 DAYS A WEEK: Walk ins welcome for adoption interviews between 11am-3pm! Our gates remain open until 4pm, but we conclude our adoption interviews at 3pm so we have time to take the dogs out, feed them and get them ready for bedtime.
During quieter periods, we will also do our best to review online applications, but unfortunately cannot get back to every applicant, especially for more ‘popular’ dogs. If you agree with our adoption philosophies and are ready to adopt- please do not wait for us to contact you after submitting a questionnaire.
PUPPIES & DOGS IN FOSTER CARE: If you are particularly interested in a young puppy or a dog that is currently in foster care, please indicate this on your questionnaire. Young puppies will not be on site here at the Refuge as it is much more beneficial for them to remain in foster care until their adoption. For dogs and puppies that are not on site, we will review online applications and get in touch with suitable homes to arrange a meet and greet.
