Meet Kokomo

Kokomo is an absolutely stunning looking dog, her coloring and muscle tone is absolutely breathtaking! Our best guess is that Kokomo is a Rott/Lab mix, she is young, somewhere around three years of age and is very sweet!

Kokomo is a large girl, weighing in the 70lb range but is not a stocky dog like a Rott, she is truthfully shaped like a Greyhound with a barrel chest and a small waist but is quite muscular. Sweet Koko is definately a high energy girl right now as she's still got alot of puppy in her. She does ok with other dogs, however she is the sort of dog that doesn't understand how big she is and plays quite intensely so she would probably be best suited with another dog with her same energy level and play style.

Kokomo is a fast learner and has been reported to be housetrained in her foster home.

Koko is mildly obsessed with cars and chasing cars. She is great in a fenced yard and has never tried to jump or escape. She is not however a dog that you will be able to toss in the back of the car and go on a long trip with currently. Her obsession with wanting to chase cars extends to her riding in a car and the cars on the road around her. She does fairly well on walks and we are still working on this but have been fairly successful in keeping her focus when a car goes by when on a walk. Kokomo is a high spirited dog and we currently have her on medication to help keep her overstimulation to a minimum.

Kokomo recently had a large non-cancerous mass removed from her chest. This type of fatty tumor is known to sometimes re-appear so a close eye needs to be used to check for any signs of regrowth. This is again non-cancerous a fatty tumor but in her case it grew very large.

Is Kokomo the dog for everyone...absolutely not...but for an experienced patient owner who can use training as mental stimulation and know how to handle a high energy incredibly intelligent dog...this is your girl. If she could get past the car obsession she would be the absolutely perfect working dog as she has laser focus on whatever task you want her to focus on.
