Kaya - Shepherd and Terrier Dog for Adoption in Minneapolis, Minnesota

Looking for a playful little companion who’s always ready for her next adventure? This sweet girl might be your perfect match!

She has a curious personality and loves exploring the world around her. Whether she’s enjoying a walk, playing with other dogs, or meeting new people, she’s always excited to be part of the fun! She’s a social little butterfly who loves people and gets along wonderfully with other dogs.

She’s also a clever girl who catches on to new things quickly! She’s already crate trained, mostly potty trained, and doing well on a leash. She’s not much of a barker either, but she certainly has plenty of playful personality to share.

Her ideal home would be with an active family or someone who enjoys daily walks, outdoor activities, and spending time playing together. A fenced backyard would be a wonderful bonus, giving her space to explore, run, and enjoy being a puppy.

With her curious mind, friendly nature, and eagerness to learn, she’s ready to grow into a wonderful lifelong companion. All she’s missing is a family to share her adventures with!

Kaya is 18 weeks old and 22 lbs 1 oz. Since we don’t know the dog’s actual genetics, this is just a guess on breed and size when grown. All dogs have had a vet examination, are up to date on all vaccinations, and have been given dewormer and heartworm prevention. Dogs over 7 months have been heartworm tested.

If you are interested in meeting this dog please complete the adoption application on our website at https://safehandsrescue.org/adoption-process/ and then we can contact you about setting up a meeting.
