Story
$50 Adoption fee! Why so low? Yakima County is spilling over with stray and dumped dogs. Our goal is to get dogs into the right homes ASAP so we can help other dogs in need. It's not about the money, it's about finding the right home for these pups! Koda was owned by a homeless person who had to change locations and couldn’t take him along. He wanted more for Koda, but was really heartbroken letting him go. Koda is a wonderful dog, with so much love to give. He plays really well with the other foster dogs and loves exploring new places and smells. This dog is located in Selah, WA. PetFinder allows multiple postings of the same animal as long as the postings are 100 miles apart from each other. This way we can reach far and wide to find the perfect home for this dog. If driving to Selah is difficult for you, we will do our best to find a rescue partner to meet you halfway.
