Cody is a gentle giant, estimated to be 5 years old and weighing around 90 lbs. Despite his size, he carries himself with a quiet grace, more likely to lean into you for a comforting presence than to demand attention. He has a special way of showing affection; when he feels safe, he'll lean his body into you, a silent, earned hug that speaks volumes. Cody may take a little time to warm up to new people and environments, thriving in a calm space with a predictable routine. Once he settles in, which typically takes about 1-2 weeks, he becomes an easygoing and loving companion. He's not a high-energy dog, preferring peaceful coexistence with other calm, respectful canines over boisterous play. He's also shown to be wonderfully respectful of cats, approaching with quiet curiosity and no pushy behavior. Cody absolutely loves car rides and would be a low-key road trip buddy, enjoying the simple pleasure of cruising with the windows down. He's ready for someone who sees beyond his initial shyness and into his soft, soulful heart, offering him a safe, connected, and understood life.
Ideal Home
Cody would thrive in a peaceful and predictable home environment. A yard would be a bonus for him to stretch his legs, but the most important factor is the overall calm energy of the home. He would likely do well in a home with a resident cat that respects boundaries, as he has shown respectful behavior towards felines.
