A note from Keno's foster dad: What do I say about Keno? Hmmmm... High energy! Very loving. Obedient. Great dog! Keno seems to know basic commands such as: sit, come, stay, no, good boy, etc. however, he is definitely mal and if given the opportunity to run, he will typically do so. He enjoys squeaky toys and loves to climb on top of things - ie the boat, the tractor, etc... of which my neighbor finds quite entertaining as Keno peers down over the fence from the top of the backhoe. In all Keno does great inside or out. I do not know how he would do if he were the only dog as he has a lot of energy and might get bored if left alone, but I think he would do really well with a female preferably non-dominant companion. Keno would do well with someone who can take him for runs or at least regular walks and rides. He loves to go for rides!!!!! He is fairly good on a leash and may pull slightly, but is receptive to a firm voice and heal. He is a very affectionate dog that loves to lay at your feet with his head resting on top of your feet, and will often push his head against your feet or legs if he feels your not giving him enough petting. I truly feel that he is a dog that would risk his life for his master if it were called. He has a beautiful coat that combs out well in spring. I would not recommend him for a house with small animals nor possibly small kids due to his high energy level and a tendency to play rather rough. In general, he is an extremely loving dog who would make someone a great companion. Keno is currently being cared for in Lakewood, WA. |
