Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees / Anatolian Shepherd / Mixed (medium coat). Meet Koda, the 9 month old mixed breed. Koda came to the Shelter after his previous guardian was unable to continue caring for him. He lived in a home with two small breed dogs as well as a cat in his previous home. Koda can be exuberant and energetic, typical to his size and age. Koda seems like he may enjoy the company of some dogs but not others. Any resident dogs should meet at the Shelter prior to adoption. Koda did well in the previous home with the dog-savvy cats unless they started to run.. then it was fun for Koda to chase them. A home with dog-savvy cats and a slow, thoughtful introduction may be a fit in the next home. Koda was noted to be house trained and crate trained in his previous home. He would thrive with an adopter that will provide daily mental and physical stimulation. Please note: Our Santa Cruz locationâs Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end âmeet and greetsâ (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If youâd like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them

More About Anatolian Pyrenees Breed
Overview:
The Anatolian Pyrenees is a large guardian hybrid created by crossing the Anatolian Shepherd of Turkey with the Great Pyrenees from the Pyrenees mountains. Known for their impressive size, often weighing between 80–140 pounds, they carry a thick double coat that provides protection in colder climates. Their temperament blends loyalty, independence, and gentleness, making them devoted family companions while retaining strong protective instincts. Although affectionate with children and calm indoors, their guarding nature and need for space make them better suited to rural or suburban homes rather than apartment living. With proper socialization, they coexist well with other pets, but consistent training is essential due to their intelligence and stubborn streak. Common health considerations include hip dysplasia, joint strain, and bloat, typical of giant breeds. Overall, the Anatolian Pyrenees is a gentle yet vigilant dog, ideal for families seeking a devoted protector.
