Meet Kona, a sweet, large mixed-breed (likely a Boxador or Pit mix) about a year old and currently in Sioux City, IA. Kona came into rescue without much guidance and had to adjust to the rhythms of home life, but his foster has seen him blossom over time. He now gets along with every other dog in the house, after learning the ropes about sharing and coexisting. Kona starts off shy with new people, but once you’re in his circle, he wants nothing more than to be next to you, earning the title of your best friend. He’s easily startled and does best in an environment without very young children—think peaceful rather than chaotic—and would benefit from a fenced yard if he gets spooked outside. Chewing on bones is his absolute favorite, and he’s always up for a round of tennis ball chase (though he’ll promptly destroy a tennis ball if left to his own devices). Kona is housebroken, kennel trained, neutered, microchipped, and his vaccinations are current. Kona is only available to meet by appointment after an approved application, as he’s in foster.
