Keta

My name is Keta and I'm an athletic, inquisitive, loving, and intuitive cattledog-beagle mix at 28-pounds and the perfect partner for an active household. I love to hike, run free, ride with my head out the window, and dig in the water for special rocks. I benefit from a strong pack leader that can tell me what needs to be done—I aim to please. I am food motivated and love to practice training. Between exercising and training, my favorite place to be is within reach of a good pet or belly rub, or even kisses if you’ll accept them! In my young life, I have lived a lot of places and met a lot of people. I really like people, even kids! Even though I have been raised with my littermate sister, I think I am meant to be in a household without other dogs. You see, I get quite nervous around other dogs—even my own sister! I want to feel secure in my position in the household and around other dogs, and I need a leader and a home where I can feel safe and secure.

Is there anything else you'd like your pet's new family to know?: Keta has recently undergone "bootcamp" training with an e collar and has drastically improved in calmness and reactivity. This training should continue to be reinforced.
Why are you rehoming your pet (primary reason)?: Incompatible with Other Pets
Rehoming reason details (if necessary): Keta is a very sweet pup to humans, but has a lot of anxiety around other dogs. She was adopted with her littermate while I had a partner, but am now single and caring for both dogs. I travel a lot for work and cannot leave Keta with family due to reactivity with other dogs so it makes travel complicated and expensive. Keta is a treasure and would be perfect in a family that loves activity, cuddling, and does not have other pets.
What do you feed your pet?: Dry kibble

Yes
No
