Kota

Meet Kota <br/><br/>Kota is about 5-ish years old and is looking for a fresh start with the right person or family. He's a rescue himself, and while we don't know everything about his past, we do know he's a loyal, intelligent boy who bonds closely with his people.<br/><br/>Kota has primarily been kenneled and will likely need patience and guidance as he adjusts to spending more time out and building confidence in a home environment. He does okay with other dogs when introduced slowly and properly, and he can coexist with cats. He's also done well with kids and babies, showing a gentle and tolerant side in family settings.<br/><br/>Handling? No problem there. Kota does fine with baths and nail trims, which makes grooming much easier. He's a smart dog and previously received police-related training before being rescued, so he's very alert and aware of his surroundings.<br/>Because of that training, Kota is especially sensitive to certain environments. He does not do well around active drug use or heavy alcohol use and has reacted protectively in a few instances when people under the influence got too close while out walking. For this reason, he would do best in a stable, calm home with a confident, experienced owner who can provide clear structure and avoid those triggers.<br/><br/>Kota isn't a “drop him in any situation” kind of dog — but in the right home, he has the potential to be an incredibly devoted and protective companion. He's looking for someone who understands that rescue dogs sometimes come with a story... and who's willing to give him the safe, steady life he deserves.
