My story

Introducing Kaydee! 🩷 This beautiful lady is an energetic, loving, playful, intelligent 6 yr. old Queensland Blue Heeler who loves her walks, hiking, plush toys, belly rubs, daily brushing, nylabones, car rides, zoomies, basking in the sun and playing in the snow. When she's tired she loves nothing more than curling up on her bed with her blanket, next to her human on the sofa or on her human's bed if allowed! She also loves her "vacation" days at the Hassayampa Canine Resort & Spa in Prescott Valley where she can run and play with other dogs. Kaydee graduated from Granite Mountain Dog Training (4 week training) and attended UAF's Level 1 training when she was adopted. She was trained with an e-collar which she wears on all her hikes and walks to help keep her calm and confident. She is protective of her human and can be barky when on walks when she encounters other dogs or humans, but a firm “eh-eh” "sit" command, and a "tap-tap" with her collar calms her down.  Kaydee is housebroken, crate trained, uses a doggie-door and knows all the basic commands such as come, place, sit, down, and heel. She does best with consistent, positive reinforcement of what she learned in training. She hasn't had much exposure to public places but regular interaction at Home Depot, etc. was part of her initial training. She is a "leader" and wants to be "in charge" yet rarely displays concern around other dogs. As with all dogs, slow introductions are best - she loves to play and tries to engage others in her games.  She lives with a female dog and gets along with male dogs. Her behavior around animals besides other dogs is unknown. No cats please.  Kaydee’s behavior around infants, or young children, is unknown. She is fine with men and women and will likely pick a family member to be her “person.”  If strangers come to her home, slow introductions and ignoring her is the best approach. She will alert if she hears or sees strangers, or other dogs, walk past her windows or if she hears wildlife roaming nearby at night. She wears her e-collar during the day but rarely needs correction while wearing it. Kaydee would do well in a household as a single dog or in a home with an energetic companion such as herself. She needs regular walks and room to explore to satisfy her curiosity and energetic needs. If you’re looking for an affectionate, energetic and smart girl to share your days with, Kaydee would be the perfect companion.🐾🩷🐾 Our adoption fee helps cover expenses (vaccinations, microchips, spay/neuter, food, housing) for the homeless pets we rescue.
