Koda is an Australian Shepherd/Chow Chow mix. His date of birth is Dec. 30, 2017. He is smart, goofy and protective of the ones he loves. Koda would do best in an active home, and he would do better with older kiddos. He does have some food guarding tendencies. He has lived most of his life outside and will require a fence. He loves laying in his swimming pool and does well on a leash. He will require grooming and is accustomed to it. Adopters can complete an application at www.havenoftheozarks.org/adopt.
