Coastal German Shepherd Rescue

Kona has been adopted! 06-10-2006

Female about 0 old.

Meet Kona, he is a 10 month old beautiful boy who is full of love!!!
Kona was turned into us by his previous family because they decided at 10
months that they had no time for him, they've had him since he was 7 weeks
old. He is AKC registered and is originally from Missouri.

Kona has lived with a foster family who has 2 kids and 3 cats. He is
housebroken, crate trained, sleeps through the night and is wonderful
with
children. He loves his toys, loves to play tug most of all and rides
in
the car like a champ. Like a good German Shepherd, he is a bit
cautious
around new people. As for the cats, he doesn't really pay them any
attention.


Like any 10 month old, he is a bundle of energy. Kona will do well in
an
active home where he will get enough exercise and good play time. He
is a
bit unsure of being inside Pet Stores like Petsmart or Petco, clearly
he's
never been outside of his backyard with his previous family. He also
does
not understand and gets a bit confused when there is too much action
around
him. Part of this once again is the lack of exposure to the outside
world.

A puppy is a big commitment, one you need to be prepared to make for 12 to 15 years. Don't think about adopting a puppy unless you are willing to go through chewed up shoes, dug up plants and obedience and training, and making sure you'll always have a place for your canine family member.


The minimum adoption donation for adults is $375 and the adoption donation for puppies is $500. This amount only partially covers the cost of veterinary care, boarding fees, and other miscellaneous expenses involved in the temporary care and adoption of our dogs and is tax deductible when permitted by law. The adoption donation provides that all dogs will be spayed or neutered, receive current vaccinations, and are microchipped. If not, arrangements will be made on an individual basis ( i.e., puppies who will need to be altered by 6 mos old). Special consideration may be given to those willing to adopt older dogs or dogs with physical problems.
