Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees / Border Collie / Mixed (medium coat). // Find our applications at .midwestanimalrescue Adoption Fee: $500 plus tax Meet Koda Koda is a loyal, intelligent, and affectionate boy who bonds deeply with his people. With those he loves, he’s a big cuddle bug who enjoys walks, hiking, training time, and relaxing at home with toys or a good movie. Koda does best in a calm environment and prefers slow introductions to new people, especially men. Once he feels comfortable, he’s very sweet and loving. He can be protective of his home and will bark to let you know when someone is around. He has lived successfully with cats and does best with calmer animal companions. Koda is not a fan of overly hyper dogs and enjoys having his personal space respected, especially around food. Koda would thrive in an adult-only home or one with older, dog-savvy children who understand boundaries. He’s looking for a patient, loving home where he can get consistent one-on-one time and feel secure. Koda is a wonderful dog who will be deeply devoted to the right family.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Pyrenees Border Collie, a compelling hybrid of the intelligent Border Collie and the majestic Great Pyrenees, emerges as a fascinating and capable companion. Originating from combining these two distinct working breeds, its purpose is often to blend the herding prowess of the Border Collie with the guarding instincts of the Great Pyrenees. Physically, expect a medium-to-large dog, typically exhibiting a dense, weather-resistant coat, often in shades of black, white, merle, or tricolor, with a build that suggests both agility and strength. Temperamentally, they are generally loyal, intelligent, and protective, making them excellent family guardians. However, their intelligence also means they require consistent training and plenty of mental and physical stimulation to prevent boredom. While their protective nature can be wonderful for families, early socialization is crucial. Due to their size and need for exercise, they are not typically suited for apartment living and thrive in homes with ample outdoor space. Health-wise, they can be predisposed to conditions affecting their parent breeds, such as hip and elbow dysplasia, and eye conditions, so responsible breeding practices are vital.
