Kookie is an adorable basenji mix female; all legs and sweetness!!
Kookie gets along great with all the other dogs she's met but does not do well with cats. She's a bit jumpy so small children might not appreciate it - but this foster mother thinks that once she gets settled and is not shuffled around, she'll relax; she's very sweet and kissy so if you have children who have no fear of a dog jumping until you can teach her not too, it would not be a problem. She is not nippy at all!
Her photos do not do her justice - she looks almost like a deer sometimes and sometimes a fox; gorgeous brown/green eyes. She will calm down and lie on the couch w/ you as long as you pet her!.
Kookis is about 2 years old and weights maybe 20 lbs but just.
Medical: Spayed, up to date on her shots, and heartworm negative.
She may be prone to a bit of separation anxiety but she was in a shelter previously and now seems to be doing great in my home. Someplace she knows she is safe. The cases of our dogs with separation anxiety typically improve drastically after one month of living in a stable home. If you decide that she is a dog that you might consider adopting, you will honestly not recognize her as the same dog after she has settled in with your family.
If you are looking for a little girl who will love nothing more than to snuggle up with you and your family and show all you tremendous devotion and love, Kookie is a perfect match. She is precious and she needs a home with people there most of the time.

Kookie's donation is $300 which covers her vet care and includes her transportation up to New England. Paws New England is not shelter but a rescue and thus is not funded by any city or state organization - we rely solely on the donations of our adopters to help defray the costs associated with saving these precious lives. Unless otherwise stated, all of our dogs are being boarded at a vet clinic located in Tennessee. If a dog is "local", that means he or she is at one of our foster homes in New England.
