KODA BEAR, AN NORWEGIAN ELKHOUND MIX PUPPY - NORWEGIAN ELKHOUND / POMERANIAN / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Norwegian Elkhound / Pomeranian / Mixed. **Koda Bear** This darling puppy was dumped from a car and left to die. A wonderful passerby took the puppy home to care for her until a rescue had the room to take him. Koda is settling in at Rompin Paws Rescue, and he is ready to make someone a fabulous family companion!! Koda is a little shy, but curious, and warms up quickly. He would love to have a doggie companion in the home for mentoring and friendship. Koda's estimated adult weight is approximately 25 pounds, based on information we found online. He is either a Pomeranina-German Shepherd or a Elkhound mixed with a small breed because he will not be a large dog based on his 13 pound size at 4.5 months of age. Koda will need an adopter who has time to train and care for a growing puppy. Puppies are a lot of work and require dedication to establish boundaries and help them become well-behaved members of the family. He cannot be locked in a crate for hours at a time and be left alone. Koda will do best in a home with an adult, dog-friendly pup who can mentor Koda and be his BFF dog buddy. Koda will do really well with older, dog-savvy children, as this breed mix makes an excellent family dog. **Adopting Koda** To adopt Koda, please use the link below. One of our volunteers will review your application and follow up with you to ask questions, address any concerns, and determine whether you are a good match for this pup. If a match is made, the next step will be a meet-and-greet. Please use a computer to complete the application, as tablets and cell phones may disrupt the process. Koda has transitioned to a human-grade diet that avoids kibble and focuses on a healthy, canine-specific feeding regimen. We will educate his adopters on proper diet and nutrition. The adoption fee for Koda is $595 and includes spaying, puppy vaccines, rabies, and a microchip. .rompinpawsrescue
