KEANU is a sweet Alaskan Malamute & German Shepherd mix who has much to teach us about overcoming adversity.  He unfortunately, had both his eyes removed recently due to uveitis, a painful condition that required this surgery to make him feel more comfortable.

A home with other dogs would be ideal for KEANU.   He gets SO much confidence from other dogs, not only in navigating at home and when out, but also with learning new things, and feeling secure at home. 

KEANU needs an active home that will take him out for daily walks, on easy hikes, to the beach, etc. He is NOT shy with walks and hikes--he's out front pulling and is very strong. He is working on his leash manners . He has done really well with easy hikes and LOVES it.

He enjoys the outdoors and needs a 6 foot fenced large yard because he is tall and can easily climb over a shorter fence.   While in his yard he will explore, run, sniff the fresh air and listen to the neighborhood sounds.

KEANU needs a home that will play with him with his toys. He LOVES to play  with  his humans, and really enjoys playing fetch indoors and out (once he figures out how much space he has to work with).

KEANU is also perfectly happy to sit by you all day long be involved with what you are doing, snuggle, and get belly rubs.  Wherever you are, he is eager to be there beside you.  If he is left alone he will miss you and may howl, so an apartment would not be a good home for him.

This guy deserves a caring and active furever home!

KEANU is currently being fostered by a loving family in Western Washington.
