Kelsey's Story

Meet Kelsey! She was found running at large in the county and brought to our shelter on September 10, 2025. Kelsey was never reclaimed by her owner. She is a very energetic and playful young dog. Kelsey is a great size & weighs 40lbs. She appears to have a beautiful blend of herding breeds possibly Kelpie in her pedigree. Our veterinarian estimates her to be almost 1 year old, we gave her the birthday of 10/31/2024. Kelsey was vaccinated with Distemper combination & Rabies vaccine, Heartworm 4-DX tested negative, and had pre-anesthesia blood work (all normal) on September 22, 2025. She was spayed on September 25, 2025. Kelsey will thrive with an active family. She will love being the center of attention and having playtime. Kelsey will also benefit from obedience classes. We schedule our Meet & Greets by appointment only. Please submit an adoption application for our review. <br/>Here’s the link: https://cms8.revize.com/revize/booneil/Departments/Animal%20Services/ADOPTION%20APPLICATION.pdf
