About Kona

Meet Kona! This lively 8-month-old shepherd mix brings a lot of energy and personality to the table. Surrendered through no fault of her own, she's a playful, smart, and goofy girl. Kona thrives in a home with children and gets along well with other dogs. She’s housetrained and crate trained, though she can be a bit mischievous when left unsupervised, so crating is ideal for her safety. Food motivated and eager to please, Kona enjoys toys and bones, along with adventures like running and hiking. She's learned quite a few commands but will need some training to curb her tendency to counter surf. While she walks decently on a leash, she can be a bit pushy at times. This big puppy is excited to find her forever family, continue her training, and become the best dog she can be! We promised her that the rest of her life will be filled with joy. Could you be the one to fulfill that promise? Your new best friend is just one click away.
