About Keys

Meet Keys — the little guy who thinks he’s in charge of everything! Keys is a 9 to 10-month-old mixed-breed pup, weighing around 25-30 pounds. While we can’t pinpoint his exact breed blend, we think he may have some Dachshund in him. Whatever he is, he’s full of personality! This adventurous boy is curious, confident, and fearless. He has a knack for making sure nothing goes unnoticed on the farm. His inquisitive nature gets him into the middle of the action, whether that involves his fellow animals or exploring new areas. However, he’s not a suitable match for homes with chickens since he loves to investigate them a little too closely. Keys adores swimming and is quite playful. He thrives around kids and other dogs, and he’s been doing great with crate training. With lots of energy, Keys would appreciate having a companion who can match his playful spirit, whether it be another younger dog or an active human. If you seek a dog who’s adventurous, energetic, and always ready for the next big thing, Keys is ready for his forever home. He is fully vetted, neutered, microchipped, and heartworm negative. Get ready for fun and companionship with Keys! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
