Kobe (Coach Kobe): 11/12 - All About Me

Guess what, friends?! I have been learning so much at my foster home, like how to go up and down stairs, walk on a leash, take treats from people’s hands, wait my turn (I’m still working on that one ๐Ÿ™„), and how to enjoy retirement. I have also become a professional relaxation specialist.


My foster parents say that I am the sweetest boy! I sleep through the night, do my business outside, and eat all of my food (and check my foster siblings’ bowls to make sure they ate all of their food too. See? I am so helpful!). I have never shown any aggression to my siblings or humans, even when we’re playing, eating, or getting treats. 



Things I love:

- Being close to my people.
- Being a helpful assistant for all household tasks, even vacuuming (I am so brave).
- Meeting dogs, people, and children.
- Naps in the sunshine.
- Long walks where I can stand in tall bushes.
- Ear scratches.

Things I don’t like:

- Squirrels. They are the worst.
- Also baths.



I don’t know why my foster parents call me a “nosey parker.” ๐Ÿคท‍♂️  I am simply being helpful by using my long, curious snoot to check out every little thing. I especially love sticking my nose in my foster mom’s morning coffee. I am also exceptionally brave; I heard fireworks the other night, and I wasn’t phased at all. ๐Ÿ™Œ



So now you know! I am a sweet, curious, and helpful boy who loves companionship, a good scratch, and a day filled with naps and treats. ๐Ÿงก
