About Kobe
Meet Kobe, a big, lovable goofball ready to charm you! At 6 years old, this red merle Australian Shepherd weighs in at a healthy 60 pounds. Kobe is neutered, house-trained, crate-trained, and knows a variety of obedience commands—he’s even bilingual and can respond to commands in both English and Tibetan. This playful pup has boundless energy and needs his daily dose of playtime. He's especially fond of playing ball and requires about six short sessions of fetch each day to keep him satisfied. Kobe can show off his skills by catching balls mid-air or nudging them with his nose. He also enjoys booping balloons, adding a bit of whimsy to his play sessions. Kobe is sociable and warms up to new people quickly. He loves to cuddle and spoon with his humans, showing his affectionate side. He's friendly with other dogs but stands his ground if any act snarky towards him. Although he grew up with a cat, he hasn’t been around any recently, so it's uncertain how he would interact with one now. He’s been reported to be good with kids, having lived with those aged 5 and older. Protective of his family, he barks at newcomers but calms down when assured. Kobe is looking for a forever home where he can bond with his family. Once he trusts you, he won’t stray far from your side. He needs someone who can commit to giving him plenty of exercise and affirming that he’s the best boy in the world. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
