Sadly, Kimi came to Last Chance Animal Rescue in Edenbridge, Kent, severely overweight. She was struggling to walk and, after further investigation, it was discovered she unfortunately has luxating patella in both her knees. Due to Kimi being energetic, she jumps around in her kennel making the recovery post-surgery not possible, so she is kept comfortable with medication and is doing well on it.
Kimi is a black and tan Rottweiler and is 8 years old. Since finding her love for walks and balls, she has managed to shed the weight but is still in need of losing those last few kilos. Kimi is absolutely obsessed with her toys and mainly balls. You will always find her with a ball in her mouth, whether she is out on a walk or laying in her bed, she will have a toy. She treats it as a comfort blanket and wherever she goes, a toy will go with her.
Kimi is great with the people she knows, however it can take time to build up trust with her. Kimi does enjoy a fuss and some attention but only on her terms and only for a short period. Kimi is happiest being near and with you rather than on you like a lap dog.
Kimi likes her own space, but likes to know you are around, so would prefer to sit in her bed surrounded by her toys with you in her eyesight so she knows she is not alone. One of Kimi’s rare features which the staff all love, if she allows you to sneak a glance, is her ‘pig skin pads’ on her paws.
Kimi is looking for an experienced adult-only home with no other pets. She needs an owner who will give her the time and patience she will need to earn your trust and to settle in to a home environment.
