About GSD Rescued

Adoption Fee: $850
German Shepherd mix
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Male

This German Shepherd was rescued from euthanasia at a large, urban shelter. He was an owner surrender. He is neutered, up to date on vaccines, micro-chipped and had a recent veterinarian check. He has a Clean Heartworm test print out, and is on Heartgard monthly for prevention of that. He is also on NuVet daily supplements, and Victor Professional dog food. He is treat motivated and will sit for treats. He rides nice in the car,and loves to go places in the car. He was well behaved at the vet, and affectionate to the veterinary staff. While in the vet waiting room- he was silent when he saw a cat. He has previously been brought to a porch loaded with cats, and did not approach them. In addition to being affectionate and courteous to veterinary staff, he sat patiently and waited his appointment turn. He is solid amber/honey color with black markings- and a white splash across his chest. He is shy and afraid- but does warm up affectionately. He is 56 lbs. and full grown. He will need someone who knows how to work with fearful rescued dogs- and can build trust with him. He is potty trained with a dog door. He will also go to the door and wait to go out. He does do general commands of sit, lay down and leash walking. He is afraid of large dogs. He has dog park experience, but is generally afraid of large or aggressive dogs. He does interact appropriately with small, polite gentle dogs. So he will need very slow interactions to other pets because he is fearful around other animals. He was brought to us by canine ground transportation professionals and received a veterinarian evaluation, vaccine updates and HW test (which is clean). Therefore his adoption fee is to cover that so we may again rescue more dogs from euthanasia at overcrowded shelters. If you are interested in this dog you must send an interest email to us that includes the name of the dog you are interested in, your name/city/state and phone number. We will then email you our German Shepherd application. Our email address is as follows: [email protected]
