KODIAK
(Partially Deaf)
**NOTE: Due to my hearing impairment, I will need a home with a fence, another dog and someone that is home more often (ex: at home parent, work at home, work opposite shifts, retired, etc)**

4/3/08 - Kodiak has been here almost 2 weeks and is doing great.  I have found he hears some things, but not everything, so I would say he is mostly deaf, but not 100%.  He gets along great with my cat and the other two boxer girls here.  Kodiak was neutered yesterday and had his shots updated, so now he can go to his new home.  He is very strong on the leash and needs some work in that area.  Kodiak is a very sweet boy and loves to cuddle.  

3/24/08 - Kodiak arrived on Friday evening thanks to his transport helpers!  He is a big white boxer, about 2 years old, that was a stray to a shelter we work with. I called him Kodiak as he is just a big teddy bear!  One big surprise I figured out when he arrived is that he is deaf.  This means he will need a home with a fenced yard and someone home more often. 

Kodiak loves riding in the car with me doing errands and laying his big head on my shoulder as I drive.  So far he has been great in his big wire crate when I am not home and at bedtime.  Since he is not neutered yet, he does have a marking habit that I am working on breaking of in the house (harder to do with a deaf dog!). 
Luckily I have not seen any of the separation anxiety that comes along with many deaf dogs.  He seems content to go in his crate when needed.  I will work on introducing him to my cat & boxer girl this week and he should be neutered soon too.
