About Banner

German Shepherd
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Male

You see, Banner is a very large dog and his breed has lots of strength, energy, and intelligence. Unfortunately for Banner, no one has worked with him to train him and teach him any manners. He knows nothing. He has lived outside on a chain for the majority of his 2 and a half years. He is very active and loves to jump and rough plays by using his mouth. He views your hands as toys. He will bowl you over to get outside and get out the door. However, Banner is a very sweet boy that loves people! He gets very excited to meet anybody and enjoys being loved on. We are still hoping that there is a rescue out there that is familiar with his breed that is better equipped to train him and meet his needs to prepare him for an adoptive family. HOWEVER, we are now open to potential adopters! If you are considering applying for Banner, please take the following into consideration: Banner must be the only animal in the home. Banner needs a large fenced in backyard for daily exercise and training. You will need to be in it for the long haul and willing to teach and train Banner everything including the basics. He is not house trained, he is not leash trained, he does not know any commands. Homes with children need not apply. The only exception might be teenagers that are willing and able to help their parents with daily training. Banner sounds like a lot of work, and he truly is, but we promise that it will be worth it. He is such a great dog that had a rough start. He deserves the best home that will love him forever.
