About Colby

German Shepherd
Age: Adult
Sex: Male

Colby - A Friendly and Affectionate German Shepherd Colby is a loving and affectionate male German Shepherd and the fourth German Shepherd rescued by Sedona Shepherd from a hoarder in New Jersey. Like Velvet and Callie, and Wren (Reckless), Colby is excited to begin the best part of his new life; finding a loving home. Colby will amble up to new people and look at you with an expectation of getting some petting and attention. We estimate Colby to be about 7 years of age. Before coming to Sedona Colby had lived a good portion of his life in a crate and cramped conditions. Today he is enjoying the good life in a foster home on a horse farm with lots of land and love. Colby has bravely been dealing with a medical condition called Dry Eye Syndrome, that was not addressed properly at his prior home. To keep the symptoms in check, Colby has been receiving eye drops 3 times a day, which he will gently accept. Additionally this condition has severely affected his sight in one eye. These medical issues do not slow Colby down. He has a keen sense of his surrounding and enjoys being sociable and friendly. After Colby was neutered we found out that he has a hernia that needs to be fixed. Once he is medically cleared Colby will be ready for his new forever home. Sedona is happy to have been able to help save Kolby, Velvet, Callie and Wren. You can read about their story and the sad case of a lack of justice for the hoarder. Since little money was recovered by the municipality, Sedona Shepherd (and all the rescues that have helped) have had to cover all of the medical costs for these dogs. We estimate the veterinary care to cover all three of these beautiful dogs to be $2,500. Please help us by donating to Colby's medical bills.
