Story

Koda is a 4yr old Great Pyrenees who would do well in a place where he can spend most of his time outside. He is good with kids most of the time, but they need to be able to understand his cues when he wants to be left alone. He has bitten me when I was clipping his nails, but normally he gives a warning when he's had enough. We moved from a place with a large, fenced in yard to a place with no yard and it's starting to take a toll on him. He listens very well, not much of a runner, and typically only barks at delivery trucks.

Story

🐾 Meet Tofu! 🐾 Tofu is a 9-year-old, 66-pound bundle of wiggles and love looking for his forever home. Don’t let his age fool you—he’s still full of energy, zoomies, and goofy charm. Tofu has lived with his human since he was 1 ½ years old and has perfected the art of cuddling, going for walks, and keeping life entertaining. ✨ About Tofu: • Loves walks, playtime, and snuggles • Energetic but also a pro couch cuddler • Daily medication keeps his anxiety under control • Needs a fenced yard or daily walks to stay happy Tofu’s ideal human is someone who can match his energy, give him attention, and doesn’t mind sharing the couch. His current human loves him dearly but can’t give him the time he needs, so he’s looking for a new family who will enjoy his goofy personality, endless affection, and loyal companionship. If you’re ready for laughter, loyalty, and lots of love, Tofu is your guy. 🐶💛
