Born under the winter sky on Christmas Day, Kora's story began under difficult circumstances-but this beautiful girl has been showing us from the very beginning that she's made of something special.

Kora and her siblings entered the world facing uncertainty, but this resilient Shepherd mix didn't let a tough beginning define her. She's growing into a playful, energetic pup with plenty of confidence, a little bit of sass, and a personality that gets bigger the more comfortable she becomes.

When Kora first meets someone, she can be a little shy and likes to take a moment to figure things out. Give her some time to warm up, though, and that cautious exterior quickly gives way to the fun, spunky girl underneath. Once Kora decides she's comfortable, she's ready to play!

One of her favorite things is a good game of tug, especially when her beloved rope toys are involved. She's an active girl who enjoys having something to do and would love a family ready to keep her busy with play, adventures, training, and plenty of enrichment.
