Keena

Keena is currently at the SCCR Adoption Center. If you would like to meet her, please start by visiting www.sccrescue.org and completing an application.<br/><br/>Some heroes wear capes. Keena wears a beautiful brindle coat and carries herself with the confidence of a tiny warrior. Named from a Gaelic word meaning "brave and wise," this approx. 3-year-old Dachshund mix lives up to her name every day. Whether she's accompanying her foster on errands, attending family gatherings, or exploring a new environment, Keena approaches life with quiet courage and remarkable adaptability. With her graceful, dog-show-worthy trot and the adorable little tongue that peeks out when she sleeps, she's impossible not to adore.<br/><br/>Keena's bravery isn't loud or flashy - it's the steady kind. She's completely house trained, sleeps soundly through the night, walks beautifully on a leash or harness, and already knows commands like "stay," "no," and "down." She loves spending time outdoors, keeping a watchful eye on squirrels without feeling the need to chase them. While she can be startled by unfamiliar people and is still working through some separation anxiety, she's a quick learner who wants nothing more than to make her people proud. In fact, she's already conquered one challenge by learning not to jump at the door before walks.<br/><br/>Though she enjoys being part of the action, Keena isn't an attention seeker. She's content to quietly join the group, happily navigating family parties and gatherings with people of all ages. She rarely barks, enjoys a simple routine, and is perfectly satisfied with a comfy bed near her favorite humans. If you're looking for a loyal companion whose courage shines through in everyday moments, Keena may be the brave little sidekick you've been waiting for.<br/><br/>We love our dogs. We want happy lives for all of them and are looking for the home that provides the best fit for each dog's individual needs. Please understand that there may be multiple families interested in this dog. <br/><br/>Also, please know that the breed mix listed is simply a guess. In most cases, we don't know their background. We encourage you to base your decision on individual personality and pet qualities instead of relying on our guess. <br/><br/>Please understand, we only adopt our animals out near the Chicagoland area. Questions? Email us at adoptions@sccrescue.org. Hope to see you become part of the SCCR family!
