Our first foster 💛
Meet Koda, our first foster dog.
Koda stayed with us for a week and a half while he waited for his desexing surgery. It was also Biggie’s first time living with an intact male, so we weren’t quite sure what to expect—but they surprised us. They got along so well, and watching their wild play sessions was equal parts chaos and entertainment.
Like most one-year-old cattle dogs, Koda came with endless energy, a cheeky personality, and plenty of lessons still to learn. He definitely kept us on our toes! But through all the chaos, he reminded us just how much Biggie has learned over the years. It made us really appreciate the skills, calmness, and confidence Biggie has developed.
Every day we headed out on long, enriching sniffy walks. At first, Koda wasn’t quite sure what to do. For the first few days he mostly followed me around, always wanting to know where I was. Slowly, though, he started watching Biggie, following his lead, and learning that walks aren’t just about moving—they’re about slowing down, sniffing, exploring, and taking in the world around him. It was so rewarding to watch his confidence grow each day.
Now Koda has moved on and is looking for his forever home. ❤️
We’re so grateful we got to be part of his journey, even if it was only for a short time. This experience taught us so much, and we’re already looking forward to opening our home to the next foster dog who needs a safe place to land.
Until next time, Koda. We hope your perfect family finds you soon. 🐾
