Description:

Koira was recently rescued from a MN backyard breeding home. He is timid with people; he does not seener is). Lastly, due never having experienced wearing a collar or walking on leash we are initially requiring they go to homes with securely fenced yards

Koira is a happy, loving lab ready for a family of his own.

Koira loves all adult humans he meets. He greets them with a wagging tail, usually carrying a toy in his mouth and making adorable grumbling noises.

But he is very confused by small humans and thinks they are not to be trusted. He will need a home without small children.

He loves other dogs and has done well with each one he's met. He's also very good with cats of all ages. He will benefit from another dog in the home to show him the ropes, though he would also do fine as an only dog.

He is still learning to walk on leash. He lacks some confidence away from the home and will walk behind you rather than beside you... he's working on it!

In his downtime, he loves a comfy couch or dog bed, especially if a pillow is involved. He's a sound sleeper and is quiet all night long.

He is house broken and crate trained. He rides great in the car.

He is currently working on waiting patiently at open doors.

He is still a pup and needs training. He will chew on things he should not if he's left to his own devices.

Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance.

Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
