Kobe is a beautiful brindle boxer boy. He has the best soulful boxer eyes. Looking into Kobe's eyes, you can see uncertainty and a need for love and acceptance. Kobe is going to need some work. He needs some obedience, some confidence and some help. Kobe is going to need a confident owner that is familiar with the boxer breed. Kobe has not been well socialized. He is scared in new situations and nervous when he isn't in a familiar setting. Kobe is terrified in the kennel. He really needs a foster home and some help. Kobe was relinquished to the shelter by his owner. His owner had him off leash in the garage. A dog walked past Kobe's house on a leash. Kobe ran out of the garage and grabbed the small dog, breaking the dog's leg. Kobe had never showed any previous aggression. Kobe is now in a cage free environment with between 5 and 10 different dogs a day. He has shown no aggression in his new environment. He has shown nervousness and fear. He panicked when he was presented with a crate. He freaked out and ran as far away from the crate as he could get. |

We don't know if Kobe was abused. He is very hand shy and scared. He doesn't like fast movements and will shy away from things that make him nervous. We haven't seen any aggression from him in any situations. Kobe is a special dog that deserves a special home. He isn't a work-free dog. You're going to have to put some time and effort into Kobe. But like many things in life, what you put in you'll get back ten-fold. Kobe has potential. He has a future. Do you want to share it with him? |
