Meet Kona – A Majestic Guardian Ready for Her Ideal Home!

Kona is a beautiful four-and-a-half-year-old Anatolian Shepherd from Altadena, California, with a heart set on finding her perfect new family, wherever they may be. This spirited companion finds joy in the simple things – from chew toys and tennis balls to invigorating runs and cozy lounging. Her loyalty is unwavering, and she adores being close to her loved ones, content to follow them or relax nearby in a favorite chair.

Kona’s perfect home would be a spacious, outdoor environment – ideally, acres of open land where she can fulfill her natural role as a guardian. Bred for protecting livestock, she has a keen instinct for surveying her surroundings and would thrive in a place where she can roam freely and keep an eye on her territory. Kona would be especially well-suited for a home where she could be a "guardian of the land," patrolling her space with purpose.

In addition to space, Kona’s ideal family would be experienced with protective breeds. She needs a confident handler who can offer the firm, calm guidance she requires, especially in situations where she needs clear instruction.

Though she may show territorial protectiveness at home, Kona is quite friendly in neutral spaces like boarding facilities, and she’s known for her gentle nature around children. Kona’s perfect match will appreciate her loyal, independent spirit and offer her the calm, stable environment she craves – ideally with limited visitors to respect her need for a secure space.

Fully crate trained, vaccinated, spayed, microchipped, and house-trained, Kona is more than ready for a new beginning. If you’re captivated by her charm and have the experience and space to offer this wonderful dog her ideal home, reach out to adopt@joyfulpets.com today!

Kona is ready to embark on her next adventure – could it be with you?
