My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Kodi, Male, Black Mouth Cur, 6 years old, 85 lbs.

If you like adventure, then Kodi is your man! This handsome dude is looking for someone who can commit to his needs as an active dog, giving him plenty of time to run and play in a safe area. 

Besides his charming looks, Kodi is housetrained, knows basic commands, and has lived companionably with cats and young children. He loves having visitors, and will bark an enthusiastic hello. It may sound intimidating, but it's really just all of his happiness and exuberance pouring out, and he can’t wait to meet you. He does jump up in these situations but is working hard on lowering his intense excitement when meeting new people.  

Kodi loves car rides and walks. He will pull on the leash, and sometimes lunge when he sees larger dogs, but he is making progress with this through training and practice. He is currently using a head collar or front clip harness to help him learn he doesn’t need to pull to smell the roses along the way; they will be there when he is patient too! Continued work on leash walking will be required. 

On occasion the puppy in him will come out and he will take items he shouldn’t and chew on them, however, will gladly trade for a higher value item as an option. Once, when trying to get a prized possession away from Kodi with a treat, he was so quick he got the treat AND a human thumb at the same time, ouch!  Tossing several treats farther away works and not all possessions are highly valued and thought of as prized treasures. I believe this was an accident and not an aggressive tactic by Kodi. Kodi gets along with most dogs but was reactive to one causing his guardian to get nipped while trying to get the other dog away.

This smart fella is a gentleman with handling and at the vet. Kodi tolerates baths, even though he really dislikes the water. He has had ear drops, brushing and nails trimmed with no issues. Kodi has even had porcupine quills pulled out of his face when he learned the hard way that no, the porcupine did not want to be chased!  He is known for this squirrel hunting prowess which could be his breed, or just who he is.  Kodi does not like the crate but is used to being alone with the run of the house for 4-5 hrs a day and has been left up to 8 hrs.

Kodi really wants to find his perfect match; someone who appreciates and enjoys an active chap who loves to run around sniffing and adventure seeking, and who will provide Kodi with enrichment and exercise regularly. Kodi is up to date on all his vetting, and can’t wait to start his next adventure!
