Story
Meet Kobe 💛 Found on a cold roadside with his brother Buddha, tucked in a crate with all their belongings, Kobe has every reason to be wary of the world—but instead, he’s chosen joy. He’s chosen love. And now he’s ready to choose you. Kobe is the best kind of contradiction: an adventure buddy with couch-potato vibes, a velcro snuggler who also loves to explore, and a playful goofball who somehow still manages to be a straight-A student. He’s the full package—heart, humor, and all the kisses you can handle. 🐾 A few things about him: • Total snuggle monster and affection sponge—he lives for leaning, cuddling, and being your shadow 🤗 • Playful, goofy, and full of personality—he brings instant sunshine to any room ☀️ • Toy-motivated and a proud chew-toy enthusiast 🧸🦴 • Food-motivated and eager to learn—training comes naturally to this smart boy 🍪🎓 • Good for vet care—sweet, cooperative, and trusting 🩺 • Learning his leash skills—he’s improving every day with guidance and consistency 🚶‍♂️ • Loves giving kisses and soaking up every bit of human affection 💋 • Social butterfly—he loves meeting new people and soaks up attention wherever he goes 🌟 • “Velcro dog” tendencies—he wants to be right by your side, always ❤️ • Possibly cat-friendly; we can test to be sure 🐈 • Good with Buddha, and likely good with other dogs—will need dog testing beyond his brother to confirm 🐕 • Medium shedding—bring a brush, and he’ll think it’s spa day 🧺✨ • Adventure buddy by day, couch potato by night—the perfect balance 🏞️🛋️ • Doesn’t need to be adopted with Buddha—both boys are ready to shine in their own homes 🌙 Kobe is resilient, loving, and so ready for his next chapter. After everything he’s been through, he deserves a home that will give him warmth, consistency, and the affection he’s waited far too long for. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will adore you endlessly, Kobe might just be your perfect match. 📍 The Center for Animal Health and Welfare PA Kennel License #02941 1165 Island Park Rd, Easton, PA 18042
