Khen - Urgent

Name: Khen
Age: 11 years
Breed: Lethal White Aussie
Sex: Male (altered)
Location: Young, AZ

Vet info: Khen is confirmed neutered and is up to date on vaccines.  He is heartworm negative.  Khen weighs 78 pounds.

Owner Info: Khen's sanctuary has closed and he is in desperate need of placement.  He is an outdoor dog with a fenced yard, he is not yet housebroken, but is leash trained.  He is a nervous dog, but he is good with both men and women, and he is in good health.   He can be food aggressive and human aggressive, but he is progressing!!  He went from not be able to be petted to now accepting pets with a calm person. He is responding well to walking on a leash now and wasn't a short time ago.  Khen is looking for a very special person to work with him and understand his needs.  His owner writes, "Khen is making good progress w some extra volunteer help. He is walking on a leash and he can be pet!! He can change his behaviors with the right amount of care & love. Please consider helping find a home asap!"

From his original post so you can see the progress Khen has made: Khen is a beautiful Lethal White Aussie, born blind and deaf. Please help!!! Khen is in urgent need of a special Angel either directly or thru a rescue that will take his special needs and temperament into consideration when working with him! He was born blind and deaf. He is quite neurotic. He barks at the ground constantly. He can be human aggressive if one touches around his head. He is food aggressive. Will walk on a leash when one can get the leash on him.
Every dog deserves a chance to belong to a loving family, we want Khen to get that chance! Please help!!!

Update 6/5/2013: Khen is VERY, VERY URGENT! We just heard that he is still at the sanctuary which is closing and he is not making much progress with his behavior because they only have two volunteers - the volunteers don't have the time to work with him.  Khen needs and deserves someone who will help him continue to make progress, and give him love and a forever home!

Update 7/21/13 - Here is another plea for Khen, whose sanctuary is now closing soon!  He really needs a home and someone who will take some time with him, to help him continue to make progress!

Update 11/27/13: Khen is still living outside, still waiting for a forever home!!

Update 4/13/14: Khen has been waiting for a forever home for a year now. Please share his information!!! He is so tired of waiting!

Update 11/19/14: Khen is still living outside​ & doing ok. Several other dogs have been adopted but unfortunately Khen needs someone with a special heart.  Please see if someone could take him. Another cold winter is upon those still remaining.

Update 5/4/2016: Not much has changed except we need Khen to finally go somewhere! We can no longer keep any of dogs there. We can offer some support for whoever takes him. Please help us because he isn't mean or aggressive, just will startle when touched around the face unexpectedly. But he can be walked on leash. He is unpredictable which I'd understandable given his condition. Really needs a special place. Thanks for any assistance.
