Koa's Story

Meet Koa — Three Legs, Zero Complaints & A Whole Lot of Personality! If you're looking for an outgoing, happy, social dog who thinks pretty much everyone is his friend, meet Koa! <br/><br/>This handsome 4-year-old Husky is one of those dogs who seems to have missed the memo that he is supposed to be cautious around strangers. Dogs? Friends. Kids? Friends. Grown-up humans? Also friends. Basically, Koa's social calendar is wide open! <br/><br/>Koa currently lives with a large male dog and three cats, and he does wonderfully with everyone. He doesn't live with children, but there are lots of kids in the neighborhood, and Koa seems completely in his element when they are around. He loves being part of a family and happily welcomes attention from his two- and four-legged friends alike.<br/><br/>Two years ago, Koa was hit by a car and suffered a serious injury to his back leg that ultimately required amputation. But Koa? He just adapted and kept on being Koa. He gets around beautifully on three legs and doesn't seem to have the slightest interest in feeling sorry for himself. Why waste time feeling sorry for yourself when there are treats to eat and people to meet? <br/><br/>And speaking of treats... Koa is very motivated by snacks. This makes him eager to learn and wonderfully trainable. He also loves being brushed and is happy to enjoy all the little luxuries that come with being someone's beloved dog. However, because he's a tripod, keeping him at a healthy weight (50 pounds) is especially important to take good care of his remaining legs and joints.<br/><br/>Unlike the stereotypical Husky, Koa is also pretty quiet. No dramatic Husky opera concerts from this guy! He isn't an escape artist, either. He's simply a sweet, affectionate boy who enjoys hanging out with his people and being part of the family.<br/><br/>Koa has been through some tough stuff, but you'd never know it from meeting him. He's happy, friendly, adaptable and ready to get on with the important business of being someone's best friend. <br/><br/> Great with dogs<br/> Great with cats<br/> Loves the neighborhood kids<br/> Loves people<br/> Loves being brushed<br/> Happy and outgoing<br/> Does wonderfully on three legs<br/><br/>Koa isn't looking for sympathy. He's looking for a family, some treats, a comfy bed and a whole lot of love. And frankly, we think that's a pretty good plan. <br/><br/>If you would like to adopt/foster please apply at https://www.circle2rescue.com/dog-adoption-application/ The $200 adoption fee includes the spay/neuter, vaccinations, deworming and microchip.
