About Kokomo Joe

Meet Kokomo Joe! Looking for a big, lovable goofball to brighten your days? Look no further-Kokomo Joe is here! This 80-85+ lb mixed breed boy may have had a rough start in Texas, but he's ready to leave his past behind and find a forever home filled with love and belly rubs. Kokomo Joe's story is heartbreaking-he was abandoned and starved when his previous owner was incarcerated, leaving him to fend for himself while his housemates were fed. When he first arrived, he was painfully thin, with every rib and his hip bones showing. He also had some food aggression, but who could blame him after all he'd been through? Thankfully, with regular meals and love, he now understands he'll never go hungry again. He's no longer protective of his food and hasn't shown any signs of food aggression since. Despite his past, Kokomo Joe's spirit shines bright! He's a true fun-loving goober who doesn't realize his own size. Whether he's hopping around like Tigger or cuddling up as if he's a tiny lap dog, this big guy will keep you smiling. His crate and house manners are spot-on-zero accidents here! He's even learned to move his crate across the floor, proving he's as strong as he is sweet. Kokomo Joe gets along with other dogs with proper introductions and would thrive in a home that can continue his training and give him the structure he needs. His ideal family will embrace his goofy, big-hearted nature and help him become the best boy he can be.
