Koda has been waiting patiently for a permanent or foster home for over three years. He’s a large, medium-coated Retriever/Newfoundland mix with sharp intelligence, a goofy side, and a ton of stamina. At about four years old and roughly 70 pounds, he’s got a thing for fetch and will chase a ball for as long as you’ll throw it. Koda isn’t much for chasing wildlife or bikes, and he’s not a runner, though cats do tend to steer clear—probably wisely. He knows a solid set of commands and picks up new ones quickly. With other dogs, he’s playful in a physical, tumble-around way. Koda bonds tightly with his person and truly shines in a stable, calm setting. Busy households are tough for him. He needs a single, experienced owner who has room to move—think yard or rural property—and plenty of time and patience for daily exercise and consistency. Structure and routine help him thrive. Koda is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, and is seeking someone who values loyalty and is ready to put in the work to help him settle in. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
