Kodi, age 4

Hi. I’m Kodi with a K. That’s short for Kodiak Baer. I am 4 and have been living with my new mom for two years, since her cousin Linda passed away. I bear a striking resemblance to the love of her life, Dixie. That got my paw in the door. I knew it would be hard to live up to that perfect ideal, so I didn’t even try. My hobbies include shredding paper, barking, walking, visiting family, finding puddles, hosting an annual photo contest, admiring my canine cousin Thor, lounging, swiping snacks and riding in the car. Mostly, I focus on being me. For that, she loves me. As much as Dixie, and almost as much as Linda did.
