Meet Kenai!

Kenai is the handsome black boy of the trio, and he’s truly the definition of a gentle soul 🐾

At just 6 weeks old (and available to go home at 8 weeks), Kenai already has such a calm, loving presence. He’ll happily sit right next to you, soaking up pets and gazing at you like you’re his whole world 💙

Kenai is:
• Sweet, gentle, and super chill
• A fan of lounging next to his people
• Playful with his siblings (he loves a good wrestling match!)
• Food motivated and eager to learn
• Starting to explore toys and those adorable puppy zoomies

He’s the perfect mix of playful and relaxed, an easygoing companion in the making.

Kenai and his siblings (Koda & Nita) are:
• Currently 6 weeks old (ready to go home at 8 weeks)
• Big eaters and very food motivated 🍽️
• Starting to run, play, and get the cutest little zoomies
• Learning about toys (crinkle toys are a hit!)
• Growing, exploring, and developing their unique personalities every day

They are also typical puppies, which means their future families should be ready for:
• Continued potty training and basic manners
• Socialization with people, places, and other animals
• Teething, chewing, and lots of playful energy
• Consistent structure, patience, and positive reinforcement training

Kenai is at such a fun, impressionable stage and will thrive in homes committed to helping him grow into well-rounded, confident dog! 

Steps To Adopt

Thank you for choosing to adopt or foster and aid in the rescue efforts of RARE! **Adoption Interest Form REQUIRED via our website Rarerescue.org**Meet Marshall! Marshall is a happy, smiling boy with plenty of love and affection to give! Marshall has burst of fun energy, but he’s also just as happy to hang out and relax with his people. He loves other playful, energetic dogs and would thrive with a canine friend who enjoys a good romp. Marshall is crate trained, house trained, and does wonderfully in his crate when left alone—though like any young dog, he still needs to be crated so he doesn’t find something mischievous to get into. Marshall is showing great signs of maturity in his foster home, as we've received countless photos and videos of him snuggling soundly like a perfect angel while his foster works from home. Not to mention, his fur is unbelievably soft making him the ideal cuddle buddy!!Marshall is great with kids, but because of his sometimes exuberant personality, older children would be best for his next placement. If you’re looking for a joyful, playful, snuggly, and loyal companion, Marshall may be the perfect fit for your family. He has so much to offer!STEPS TO ADOPT: Read the adoptable’s bio below, including their adoption fee Go to RARErescue.org and Read our ADOPTION PROCESS page under the "Adopt" section Complete the DOG ADOPTION INTEREST FORM (located on our website RARErescue.org) We understand that it is important to you to find the right fit for your family. We feel the same way! The DOG ADOPTION INTEREST FORM is important and REQUIRED for this reason. All of our Adoptables are:Spayed/neutered; Up to date on vaccines; Heartworm tested if six months or older (& kept on heartworm preventative and treated for heartworms if positive when entering our program): Microchipped prior to adoptionBREEDS: We are not breed experts. The breed(s) listed for each adoptable are best guesses or suggestions.PLEASE NOTE: We are a non-profit organization without municipal or government funding. Veterinary/Medical expenses are constant for an animal rescue. Our adoption fees not only help to provide vetting and care for the animal being adopted, but they also help to cover heartworm treatments and other treatable ailments that many animals, that would otherwise be euthanized, need in order to be made available for adoption.Please understand that adopting an animal is a LIFETIME COMMITMENT to that animal and there will be veterinary expenses throughout their life that can often cost several hundreds, if not thousands of dollars (without pet insurance), especially without annual checkups and preventative care. As a potential family for this pet you are responsible for their safety and that includes keeping them on your property.***If you are not in the middle Tennessee area, transport can potentially be arranged to approved homes, depending on distance and local adaptability. We normally do not allow adoptions outside of 1.5 hours driving distance.
