About Kokomo

Kokomo is a happy-go-lucky pup with a playful spirit and a big heart. At just 8 months old, she’s showing all the best traits of her pittie/lab mix heritage—outgoing, even-tempered, and always ready for play. She loves the company of other dogs and cats, and welcomes visits from children with tail-wagging enthusiasm. Her foster mom says Kokomo is hilarious and full of antics, but she also enjoys slowing down for couch cuddles and TV time. Kokomo came from a home where she was one of many dogs needing help, but she’s settled into foster life beautifully. She’s fully potty trained and crate trained, making her transition to a new home smoother. Though she’s got puppy energy, a bit of training and some daily exercise will keep her happy and well-mannered. Puppy classes are strongly recommended for her age, as she’s at the perfect stage to soak up good habits. She’d thrive with another playful dog but will do fine as the center of attention, too. Kokomo is spayed, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and ready for her new adventure. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
