Australian Kelpie Dogs Available for Adoption in Gulfport, Mississippi

** This is an Out Of Town listing. We transport to the city on this listing. Please apply at www.bit.ly/mu-adopt **

Meet Kay Kay — short for Kangaroo Kevin! 🦘💛

And trust us… the name fits perfectly.

Kay Kay is a young female Kelpie mix weighing in around 25–30 pounds of pure bounce, energy, and love. According to her foster mom, she earned her nickname because she literally jumps and bounces off her foster mom’s back like a little kangaroo. If she were human, she’d probably have an ADHD diagnosis and be proudly thriving with it. 😂 She'd be perfect for agility training!

This sweet girl LOVES:
🐾 Playing with her dog friends
🐾 Zooming around the backyard
🐾 Chewing on her Benebone
🐾 Being wherever the fun is

Kay Kay is:
✔️ House trained
✔️ Kennel trained
✔️ Good with big and small dogs
✔️ Good with cats
✔️ Sweet, playful, and affectionate

Because she is a herding breed and still learning boundaries, she is not recommended for homes with young children.

Kay Kay is happiest and most confident at home — especially when she has a backyard to run in and another dog buddy to wrestle and play with. While she’s completely comfortable in the house and yard, she can still be a little nervous walking on a leash in busy public places. She’ll need a patient adopter who understands she’s still building confidence with the outside world.

She recently completed her heartworm injections and is ready to start the next chapter of her life with a forever family.

Kay Kay’s dream home would include:
🏡 A large, fenced backyard
🐶 Another playful dog
💛 A family who appreciates a goofy, energetic, loving pup

If you’re looking for a hilarious, affectionate little athlete who will keep you laughing every single day, Kay Kay might just be your perfect match. Apply to adopt at the link below.

HOW TO APPLY TO ADOPT:

Once submitted, we will reach out to approved applicants by phone. We may also suggest other amazing dogs in our care who could be a great fit for your home.

**NOTE: Completed applications take priority over Petfinder inquiries or emails.

LOCATION & TRANSPORT:

This dog is currently in South Mississippi. Local and out-of-town adopters are welcome. For out of town adopters, we offer virtual meet-and-greets and can arrange transport to many states in the Northeast. (The $350 adoption fee includes transport to the city on this listing. Our transports run every 2-3 weeks to that location.) We cannot adopt to Rhode Island due to import restrictions.

VETTING:

All of our dogs are cleared by a licensed veterinarian for transport and arrive to their adopters spayed/neutered with age-appropriate vaccines completed and are microchipped. NOTE: We cannot guarantee breed mix or full grown size. Both are estimates based on physical characteristics and any known history.
