About Kai

Kai is a playful Lab/Australian Shepherd mix who is approximately three years old. Recently made available for adoption, he loves his walks and enjoys cuddling with his favorite stuffed animal. Housebroken and vaccinated, he’s also on a regular heartworm and flea/tick prevention protocol. Kai has a sleek medium-length coat that glistens in the rain or when he’s exploring the snow. He does best with consistent flea/tick prevention every three weeks due to his allergies. Though protective of his space, he has shown that, with the right introductions, he can get along with some dogs, though a few have managed to rub him the wrong way. After waiting a long time for a forever home, Kai is ready for a family that values his active spirit. Interested? Call SK Animal Shelter at 401-789-5515.
