Koda's Story

Courtesy post Meet Koda! This stunning boy was found roaming the streets of Bowie, MD in mid-March and was rescued by a kind-hearted Good Samaritan. Despite efforts to locate his original owner—including outreach on Nextdoor, Facebook, local shelters, and lost & found sites—no one came forward. Recognizing what a special pup he is, several generous families stepped in to foster him. While they couldn't commit long-term due to personal circumstances, each helped Koda adjust, thrive, and show his true, wonderful personality. Named Koda by his fosters, this handsome guy is around 2 years old and believed to be a German Shepherd/Husky mix—often called a Shepsky. He’s a real head-turner with one striking blue eye and one unique eye that's part blue, part brown. Koda is energetic, affectionate, and playful. He loves chasing a ball, going for walks, and snuggling on the couch. He’ll greet your mornings with kisses and cuddle time. Loyal and protective, he’s a classic alpha male who loves his people deeply. Koda is dog-friendly but needs slow introductions—his excitement can be a bit much for calmer or older dogs. He currently lives with a senior pup, but his enthusiasm can overwhelm his older housemate. He may do best as the only pet or with a dog that matches his energy level. No cats, please—his prey drive is too high. Koda is well-behaved in the home—he doesn’t chew on furniture or shoes and has been left uncrated for up to 8 hours with no issues. He’s been crated before but isn’t a fan, so a crate-free home may be ideal. He tends to bond more quickly with women and can be wary of men at first, but don’t let that deter you—it’s all about approach and patience. With time to decompress and a gentle introduction, he’ll become your most loyal companion. Koda thrives with regular exercise and playtime. He loves watermelon, carrots, and broccoli—yes, he’s a healthy snacker too! If you’re ready to open your heart and home to this sweet, athletic, and lovable boy, please reach out to Cindy at winniesyt1@gmail.com.<br/><br/>***Disclaimer*** Unfortunately, there are not enough rooms at the inn to admit every dog that needs a furever home. But, we still want to help those dogs (and cats) on their journey! By courtesy posting, AAHA is offering our website/network as an additional resource to help an owner or shelter gain additional exposure for the dog they are trying to place. AAHA has not met nor evaluated the dog (or cat) we are courtesy posting. AAHA makes no representation about courtesy posted pets including the health and temperament and accepts no liability in this exchange. Arrangements for adoptions are made between the caretaker of the pet and the potential adopter.
