Welcome to RAGOM, Cody!  Cody is a four year old neutered male who was found as a stray down in Kansas.  A RAGOM volunteer saw his profile and decided that he needed to be a RAGOM dog, so here he is.

Cody is a beautiful boy, with a puppy like face and really long, gorgeous hair.  We believe that at some point Cody was a beloved pet, as he seems to know how to behave in a house and loves people.  He is an escape artist, has been trying to push through the bottom of our chain link fence, tries to open up the gate and if we aren't watching, he does a little bit of digging at the base of the privacy fence surrounding part of our yard.  His forever home will need to be committed to keeping him safe, as he really wants to follow whatever his nose happens to find.

Cody has some medical problems that we are digging into.  At this point, he is partially blind and we are waiting to see the eye specialist to get a definitive diagnosis.  He has some vision in bright light--in the daytime he maneuvers very well in the yard, plays and runs like a normal dog.  At night and when it is darker in the yard or in the house, he definitely doesn't see very much.  It would be best if Cody found his forever home soon, while he has some vision and can "map" out his new home.  We also discovered he has a heart murmur that we are going to get evaluated, and he has had a couple of seizures since coming into foster care.  We are working with the vet to see what we can do to help poor Cody.

This is a very sweet boy who has been dealt a rough hand and sure deserves better.  He loves people and just wants to be near you.  He walks great on a leash and really enjoys his walks.  He definitely needs some training, as he can be very stubborn when he gets something in his mind.  More updates on Cody as we get to know him better and get some answers on his medical issues.
