**** Local home in a quiet suburban or rural setting 

​

**** Will need a patient adopter and more than meet and greets to ensure a good fit. 

​

**** Would do best with another dog (prefers larger dogs or the little girls) for             companionship

 

 

Kohl - 8+ yr old 12lb Min pin x neutered male.

​

 

 

Kohl's story - He was picked up as a 3-5 mo old stray in early 2017 by animal control in a rural town in California. At the shelter he was terrified (deemed aggressive) and given no human touch other than a catch pole for about a year before I met him. I spent 4 days at the shelter with him, gaining his trust and then had him moved to a foster, also in California. Where he stayed for another 6 months without handling but was comfortable with a small pack of friendly dogs.  

 

He has lived locally at our own 'Karma Farm' since 2017. During that time, he fell in love with our big bully breed dog, Sarah, who sadly passed away last May.  So attached to her, we included him at her passing, and it was a very sad day for us all.  We have worked with him to try to gain his confidence and socialize with him.  He's made fantastic progress and feel he's ready to take the next step and have his own forever home.

 

While he will need a patient owner to let him come around in "his time," it won't take long to have your best buddy.  A big or small friendly dog would be a plus as he's usually the greeter dog when we bring in new fosters.  While he can be easily spooked (old habits die hard), he still loves his walks on the trail with our dog walkers and fellow foster dogs.  

​

KOHL'S BEST HOME:   No kids under 14 due to Kohl's shyness and a single adult or couple would be best for him. One with another dog(s) would be great to build his confidence and self-esteem. Kohl loves to hang out on the couch, and sleeping curled up under his blanket at my feet in bed is his favourite!!!!  Morning sillies are part of our routine and have made a huge difference in his self-confidence.

    
We allow a sleepover period to ensure a proper match and will work with you to ensure you have all the necessary tools.  

Kohl's adoption fee is $ 500 + pst which includes his neuter, da2pp and rabies shots, microchip, jacket, collar, harness and leash.

Contact Karen at smalldogrescuebc@gmail.com for more info and to see if Kohl might be a good match.
