Once you look into his heavy-lidded eyes and receive one of his wet kisses you\u2019ll agree. You betcha! And though his eyes make him look sleepy, he has lots of energy for play time, especially if a tennis ball is involved. He could play for hours and hours and hours. Anyway, that\u2019s his favorite thing to do besides following you around till you scratch his ears.<br \/>\nWhen Kodiak is not outside trying to get you to throw his ball &#8212;Oh how he loves his ball!\u2014he is a quiet gentleman who just wants a comfortable place to sleep near his humans. When he is left out with the other dogs, he is a very good boy.<br \/>\nSometimes mommy and daddy make him stay in his own room called a \u201ccrate.\u201d He doesn&#8217;t like it all that much, but he deals with it especially if he gets a peanut butter kong.<br \/>\nKodiak&#8217;s old mommy and daddy gave him up because he is supposed to have this thing called \u201cnoise anxiety.\u201d It\u2019s like getting upset during a thunderstorm or fireworks. Foster mommy and daddy haven\u2019t seen any of this yet, so they think it might have a lot to do with how he is treated during those noisy times. He shouldn\u2019t be left outside or by himself in a dark room. If you\u2019re home, let him be by you and if you\u2019re not, put him in a nice crate with comfy blankets and a kong!<br \/>\nFoster mommy and daddy also put something on him called a \u201cthundershirt.\u201d He is not sure what it is, but he likes it. Mommy says he looks very handsome in it and daddy says it\u2019s pretty cheap to buy.<br \/>\nDaddy also says  that he is very good with other dogs and people and is completely house-trained. He&#8217;s a good boy!<br \/>\nOne thing he doesn&#8217;t understand, though, is cats. He lives with 9 of them. He can\u2019t figure out why they don\u2019t want his face in their face, but he knows they don\u2019t like it and he mostly leaves them alone. He doesn&#8217;t much like to be alone so if you\u2019re gone a lot, another doggy to stay with would make him very happy.<br \/>\nKodiak is only three years old; and he really wants a fun, loving place to stay for the rest of his life! I bet <strong>you<\/strong> could adopt him.<br \/>\nThink he&#8217;s the guy for you? Apply for him.
