If you are looking for a beautiful, sweet, dedicated, medium sized Cavalier, Keagan is your girl.  Keagan is a retired commercial breeding dog, who is about 5 years old.  She has left her old life and is thriving in her new one.  Keagan enjoys being and sleeping with other dogs, following her foster around all day long and sleeping in the big bed.  She will let you know what she wants, if what she wants it up on the bed, her dinner and especially a treat.  Keagan will sit when directed to do so.  She is crated when no one is at home and will run into the crate when told to do so.  The magic words are, “I have cookies.”

She is mostly house trained.  Keagan will not tell you she has to go out, but will pee right away when going out.  Then she will beg to come in.  Her foster mother usually goes out with her and she will eventually do the rest of her “business.”  Like a small child, her attention is doing what she wants to do, when she wants to do it.    You will have to continue to work with her, she wants to please.  

Keagan is not a cuddle buddy, but looks for her turn to have her neck scratched, her back rubbed and spoken gently to.  She does like to snuggle next to you in bed.  Keagan is in a foster home with 6 other dogs and gets along with everyone.  She likes older children and has not been tested with young children.  She has been in a home with cats and doesn't bother with them.   She can become a little excited when going for her treat, her foster is working with her to be more gentle.

Keagan has been spayed, had her dental and is updated on vaccinations and HW testing.  We require a securely fenced  yard (no invisible fence) and another canine companion in the home. .She is being fostered in the Hudson Valley area of New York.  We do not consider long distant adoptions and do not ship dogs.
