Kune – Your Very Own Mrs. Doubtfire in Dog Form
Hellooooooo, dearies! If you’ve ever wished for a four-legged Mrs. Doubtfire to lovingly supervise your household, offer gentle emotional support, and occasionally turn everyday objects into toys, look no further than Kune!
Kune is the definition of a darling. With moderate energy, low drive, and a heart the size of the Pacific Northwest, she’s happiest curling up on the couch beside you, preferably while offering wise, nurturing glances like a canine nanny in a floral dress. But she’s also always up for a good round of fetch, because even Mrs. Doubtfire liked to have a bit of fun, dear!
She’s fabulous with dogs, sweet with small children, and wonderfully gentle around cats and even ducks. Curious? Yes. A threat? Absolutely not. She’s far too busy perfecting her polite, loving house manners and practicing her nanny duties (which currently include following her foster dad everywhere and “helping” with laundry… sometimes by removing it directly from the dryer).
Kune is goofy, affectionate, easily entertained, and incredibly friendly, though she does warm up to men slightly quicker than women. Out in the world, she’s well-mannered, social, and treat-motivated. Noise? No issue. Car rides? A delight, so long as she isn’t allowed to take the wheel (your insurance would prefer she doesn’t).
She’s kennel trained at night, though she can get sassy if other dogs walk by her space. Once out, she flips into full “happy playtime” mode. She’s learning quickly - sit is mastered, and she’s working on down, recall, heel, fetch, and even assisting her foster’s disabled husband with small tasks. Right now, she thinks his cane is a chew toy, but she’s learning to retrieve it instead.
Her ideal home? A family with multiple people and plenty of love to give. She’s gentle, cuddly, eager to learn, good with pets, great with kids, and a total attention sponge. With her empathy and desire to please, she has real service-dog potential, especially for emotional support or deep pressure therapy.
If you want a loving companion with charm, sweetness, and just a touch of comedic flair - run-by-fruiting not included - Kune is your girl.
