Story
Koda is a great family pet that is perfect for families who already have a younger dog or children. She is a small German shepherd/Australian shepherd(roughly 40 pounds) who is affectionate, super energetic and will not let you stop petting her. She is house trained and crate trained. she is very sweet around babies under supervision, my 1 year old climbs all over her and if she wants space, she will get up and walk away. Koda has never bitten anyone but does resource guard with her food and water and will growl if you pet her while she is eating. She is not spayed, only because we were waiting for her to get a little older but now she is 2 years old. Koda is an all around great dog for those looking for a new friend .

Beautiful 2 year-old white male German Shepherd looking for a loving, experienced home. He is a wonderful, loyal, intelligent dog with lots of personality and would make a great companion for the right person or family.He would do best with an owner who understands the breed and can provide him with structure, exercise, attention, and continued training. He is very playful and loves being petted. He will need more training to get more comfortable around children and other dogs.
