Cota von Cochem is a gorgeous 4 year old German Shepherd -- at least 80 pounds of cuddle bug once he gets to know you. This very handsome, mid-energy guy was left behind in an apartment when his owner moved out; the landlord found him 3 days later without any food or water. Resilient and happy, Cota is a well-behaved boy who acts like a gentleman on leash, both walking with you and meeting other dogs. He promptly responds to basic commands and pays close attention to you. He is friendly with all kinds of dogs. When we visit Cota's kennel, he will gently lick our hands through his cage door. What very lucky family will get to adopt this boy.
