Kaamos ( his name means "Polar Night", which in finnish refers to the days their is no sun in the arctic) Kaamos was dumped at a kill shelter by his owners on December 8th, Owner surrendered dogs are give 24 hours to find a new adopter or a rescue. If an adopter or rescue arent found the dog will be destroyed (put to sleep, euthanized, killed). Kaamos post was shared more than 780 times, to rescues and dog lovers.. Out of these 789 shares, no rescues wanted to take him in, many were full ( Like we are), Kaamos chances were very bleak. Despite being a healthy, sweet boy, who tested well with people and other dogs. People pleaded in the comments to "Save this boy!" "Don't let him die!" But no one offered to foster him, which is a guaranteed way to save a dogs life. Finally, we were sent his post, and asked if we could help. He had NO ONE coming for him, we could not turn our backs on him in his hour of need, He deserved much much more than what his previous people delivered him to. We have made a promise to Kaamos to find his PAWfect family who will love and care for him like he deserves! He is so grateful to be alive and he shows us every day, by his great manners and good nature, and affection. We have now had Kaamos for over a month in foster care, he has lived in a home with a loving family to get him ready for his FURever home! Kaamos is about 55lbs, a neutered male Shepard/Husky mix. He is FULLY housebroken, and has not had an accident in the 5 weeks hes been in his TN foster home, he will alert you that he needs to go out by going to the door. He is FULLY crate trained and will go in his crate to sleep, eat or chew a toy or a bone. Kaamos is extremely dog friendly, and WONDERFUL with kids, hes been in a foster home since December 6th with 2 children 6 and 7 years old. He is great with them, very gentle, and sweet. He has not been cat tested. He knows "Drop it", "Sit", "Off" and "Leave it", and "Here" or "Come". He is getting better and better with his recall training, hes not perfected it yet but he is doing well! Kaamos is food motivated, which helps with training! Kaamos loves to play with toys, other dogs, or kids, or just running around the yard. He likes to go for walks, but he can pull a little bit when he sees a doggo friend. He is great in the car and will jump in on his own happily to go for a ride, He loves people, and takes treats gentley from hands, and he is not a barker, He does bark some when playing but most dogs do! Kaamos perfect home would be an average active family, who will take him for a couple walks a day, a hike would be lovel, here and there, a back yard to romp aroung in, and either doggo siblings, or human siblings or both! He is going to make a family very very happy!
