Meet the fabulous Kaia! 🌟 This beautiful 3-year-old Boxer/Bulldog mix is a true gem, weighing in at a delightful 45 pounds. Once at the Duplin County kill shelter, on that fateful last day, she was rescued and has since blossomed into an intelligent and well-mannered family member. Now, here’s the twist: Kaia needs a new home because life has changed for her human parents.

She’s got a heart of gold, is great with other dogs, and absolutely adores children! Kids? Bring them on! 👶💖 When it comes to manners, Kaia knows her commands and excels while on a leash. Plus, she’s housebroken and crate trained—talk about a package deal! 🎉 And wait until you see her whirl around a pool! Kaia is a water champ, diving in to chase noodles and playing keep-away like a pro! 🏊‍♀️ Noodle-watching, anyone? Now, picture this: Kaia is the ultimate professional snuggler! 🥰 Her favorite spot is right beside you on the couch, belly up, ready for all the scratches and rubs you can muster! She’ll make it her mission to melt your heart. Kaia flourishes in a big, fenced yard where she can run free and truly be herself, as she relishes every moment of playtime. In her own words from the shelter, "I’m Kaia! I came in as a stray alongside my buddy Bari. I’m a super sweet girl with an insatiable love for belly rubs—honestly, they’re the best! I can’t wait to sit beside you, wait patiently for my food, and enjoy our adventures to dog parks or even a trip to pick out squeaky toys at PetsMart! I’m ready to meet my fur sibling, too! Let’s embark on this wonderful journey together! If you take me home, I promise to be your good girl!" If you’re ready to welcome this delightful companion into your life, don't wait! You can apply to adopt Kaia through the Buddy App.🌈 She’s waiting to meet her forever family, and trust me, you won’t regret it!
