About Kobe

Kobe is one of five shepherd puppies who landed at the rescue after losing their mom. At just over a year old, he’s a bit timid and prefers to stay close, soaking up affection and reassurance. Kobe has a short coat and a medium build. He’s happiest cuddled up and takes cues from braver dogs around him, which helps him feel more confident. Kobe gets along with kids, dogs, and cats, making him a solid fit for families with other pets. He’s still figuring out the world, so a little patience goes a long way as he learns to try new things at his own pace. Since Kobe’s estimated date of birth is February 1st, he’s an Aquarius—expect a dog who quietly sizes things up and finds his comfort in close bonds. He’s already up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and preventatives. Neuter procedure is included with adoption. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
