Koda

I wanted to share a little Koda update.

He is doing well in his new home here in South Portland. He loves his time on our many daily walks through Hinkley Park, which is conveniently in our back yard. He continues to meet new friends and get some play time.

Koda has gone on his own little adventure once when he flew out the door. He ran around in the woods behind the house, keeping an eye on us that we were following him. The little adventure concluded with him finding some dog friends to play with, which gave me time to get him leashed up. He laid down exhausted from all the running. After all of that, he was happy to be back with us and cuddling!

He has such a sweet, smart, cute, playful, loving, curious, and cuddly personality. He stays close and loves his nighttime cuddles.

Thank you all for being such great all around people. I know Koda appreciates it and it was very evident when him and I came in last Thursday to do his adoption.

Feel free to reach out anytime!

As @fema's Disaster Preparedness Month comes to a close, we remind everyone to prepare not only themselves, but their pets as well. As you put together your disaster preparedness kit, remember that no matter the type of emergency, it’s always important to have updated and accurate contact information for:

☎️ Your local first responders (911 and non-emergency contact information)
☎️ Your local animal shelters (like AWS if you live in York County)
☎️ Animal control officers (usually reached through the police or sheriff non-emergency number)

Bookmarking their websites and following them on social media is a great way to keep in touch during an emergency. These points of contact could help in a multitude of ways by providing information, safety, or resources for you and your pet during a disaster. Your County Animal Response Team (CART), part of your county’s emergency management agency may also offer resources. In times of great emergency, AWS partners with local emergency organizations to provide a safe haven for pets when their people must evacuate and enter a local emergency shelter.
