NOTE: KODA IS AT THE CALAVERAS COUNTY ANIMAL SHELTER AND IS SCHEDULED TO BE EUTHANIZED SOON DUE TO SPACE CONSTRAINTS.GSRSV HAS NOT MET KODA. WE ARE LISTING KODA ALONG WITH OUR OWN DOGS ON THIS WEBSITE TO GIVE HIM MORE ADOPTION EXPOSURE. PLEASE SEE END OF THIS PROFILE FOR CONTACT INFO. “Koda is a an approx 83-lb, 3-yo neutered male GSD who is gentle, people-oriented and bonds closely once he feels safe. He is dog-friendly and non-reactive. (See elsewhere on this page for a video of Koda w/ another dog.) Koda is a happy dog who loves playing with balls and splashing in water. Koda has been at the shelter for a long time and is now struggling with kennel stress, making him less adoptable. Koda is a large, strong dog who pulls a bit on leash. He will need an adopter who can handle his strength and provide him with more training while giving him time to develop new bonds. Koda’s story is quite sad. His original person rehomed him to another person, but then that person abandoned Koda in Copperopolis in a crate, from where Calaveras County Animal Services (CCAS) picked him up. CCAS has had successive groups of dogs come in: five, six, even ten at a time, resulting in some dogs doubled up or even tripled up in kennels. The crowding has hastened the euthanasia dates for many dogs, including Koda. To inquire about adopting Koda, please contact CCAS at 209-754-6022 and refer to Koda’s ID #: A060318. If you are serious about fostering Koda for GSRSV, please contact Brian Foran at 530-415-3801 (phone or text), or bab43@msn.com
