Meet KODA! Any Tom Cruise fans out there? Well, you’re in luck, this handsome pup is a doppelgänger. He’s all about the ACTION. And he loves people with intensity (would TOTALLY jump up and down on a couch about how much he loves, well, every human ever).
KODA is looking for a fetch partner (something about him is he’s always trying to make fetch happen). In his dreams, he’s playing fetch endlessly. His ideal home would be filled with activity like fun walks & hikes, and snacks that involve him using his nose to work for them. He’s passionate about yogurt-and-pumpkin-stuffed goodies.
Fun fact about KODA: He’s super smart and loves training (yeah, so what if he’s only in it for the treats?). He’s food-motivated and happy to do anything for a small fee. Though he’s the most excitable boy in the world, he’s also great at his place command. And bonus! He’s great about going in his crate for downtime/sleep. The only disclaimer is he needs adequate exercise & mental stimulation first!
With humans, KODA is all in. He’s sweet & affectionate and can’t contain his excitement when he sees people. It’s a goofy quality we love about him. He’s working on his manners i.e. not jumping up. For this reason, he’d be best in a home with older, dog-savvy children, as he can be a bit rambunctious for littler kids.
With other dogs, KODA is ready to play! He’s playful & friendly with new dogs he’s met, but since he can come on a little strong (think the intense friendliness of Tom Cruise), he’d be best going to a home with a dog that’s easygoing or one that will appropriately/confidently correct him when needed.
