This is Kona!

Kona is a 7 year old neutered German Shepard who is up to date on all his shots and vet checks, and has been taken the very best care of. 

 

He was adopted as a rescue three and a half years ago and has lived with his family in a home with a fenced in yard.  He is very loyal, loving, and gentle with his current owner. He has some initial social anxiety, but is calmed by his people’s reassurance, so his best placement would be with a confident owner with previous German Shepard familiarity and experience. After being initially introduced, he loves people and just wants to feel safe and seen, leaning in and giving kisses once he knows he is loved. He has lived in a home as the only dog and would prefer to be the only one to get all of your love and affection. He is comfortable with adults and older children, but gets a little excitable around dogs in social settings and would need to be cat tested.

 

His previous owner has worked with him constantly to build his confidence, and he loves to work for positive praise, yummy treats,  and belly rubs. He is loyal beyond belief and is extremely smart and able to learn anything that his owner is committed to teaching. The sky is the limit when it comes to training this boy.

 

Kona is crate-trained and housebroken. He loves to explore his yard and enjoys company while he is outside and running around. He loves his people and enjoys snuggling on the couch with them and playing with his toys.

Kona is a very special pup that needs a special family with lots of love and patience to help him feel safe and loved.  He gives 100% of all that love back! Kona is in search of his new home due to an unfortunate split of his current owners.  If you are looking for an awesome German Shepard with all the quirky qualities that come along with it, Kona is your dream boy! If you show him love, patience and kindness he will reward you with loyalty and companionship that you’ve never experienced! Please apply to adopt Kona at Rescueridge.com.
