About Kona

Meet Kona, a sweet senior Shepherd mix with plenty of love to share. At 13 years old, he’s navigating a new chapter after being surrendered by his owner. Kona spent two months in the county shelter, adjusting to a world that felt foreign to him. He arrived at Living Free a thin and frightened boy, unsure who to trust. With time, he’s starting to reclaim his spirit. Kona is gaining weight and gradually letting his playful side show. He loves to play fetch, and nothing makes him happier than a good butt scratch! Kona has been through a lot and deserves a safe, loving home where he can enjoy his golden years. He’s a loyal companion, eager for affection and connection. Could you be the one to give him the fresh start he so richly deserves?
