About Seven

Meet Seven !! This absolutely stunning puppy is looking for his new home. If you are a fun loving and energetic family this guy might be for you. Seven is an 11 month old, male, German shepherd. He's a big boy and already weighs 50 pounds. We expect him to be closer to 70 pounds full grown. He was very thin when he first arrived. He is already neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. He is Heartworm negative. Seven is a great puppy that just needs a shepherd savvy family. He needs daily structure and guidance to be his best self. When in a home with training consistency and proper exercise he is amazing. If he is in a home with no routine and owners not capable of being firm and consistent, he loses that training quickly. Currently he is well trained on basics commands. He already knows sit, come, stay, wait (say ok to release) paw and down. He is extremely smart and highly trainable. He is crate trained and rides great in a car. He is still learning not to pull on the leash and can pull hard when excited. If provided a routine and let out properly he is great with potty training. He does get excited and jump on people which we are working on with training. He is very people friendly and doesn't always realize his size. He has not had any aggression with food or toys with people or other animals. Seven is very friendly and good with dogs. He can get very excited and play rough so it would be best to have him in a home with other dogs similar in size and energy. He is fostered with cats and does okay. He will playfully chase the ones that run from him. He will also run away from the ones that stand their ground lol. He does well with children but is still very much a puppy and needs a home with older children. He loves kids but gets way too excited when they run and scream etc. He plays very gentle with kids that are calm but once they run he will pounce on them and try to play way to rough. Nothing aggressive at all it's just him getting overstimulated and trying to play/herd things. If you have kids they need to be over 12 and dog savvy kids. You will need to spend a lot of time working with him and the kids to teach him the appropriate way to play. Seven has a very high energy level. He is super smart and needs someone willing to keep him busy. He needs DAILY exercise both mentally and physically. He wont get what he needs just let out into the yard. He needs someone to play with him and engage with him. Training also helps to work the mind and get him tired. He has so much potential in the right home. Neither you or Seven will be happy if you're not dedicated to keeping him mentally and physically exercised every single day. If you are not willing to give him this every day, rain or shine then please do not apply to adopt him. He needs a family with the time to accommodate his physical and mental needs. He also needs a family that is firm and consistent with his training and routines. He is such an amazing dog when given what he needs. He quickly slips into negative behaviors without it. �z���%8FVet and home checks required. �z���%8F�z���%8FOTHER REQUIREMENTS 6 foot (or higher) fenced yard. No kids under 12 Located in Hampton VA.
