About Troy-HELP, URGENT!!!

The shelter is critically over-capacity, meaning, euthanizing good doggies due to lack of space!!! Which dogs are chosen is a crapshoot, but Troy is higher risk since he is stuck in the 'back' of the shelter, so less chance of being seen by the public, therefore adopted (probably due to lack of space in the 'front'). Troy is estimated to be about 2 years old, arrived at the shelter on Oct. 15th. Is listed as a German Shepherd mix, is medium size. It's reported that he had been pretty afraid being at the shelter for the longest time, but is now letting his guard down, and starting to show his silly side and become more and more affectionate as he learns to trust the volunteers at the shelter. He loves his treats and takes them gently, can self-entertain with doggie toys, very attentive, does not appear jumpy. Seems like a very sweet doggie. Has a leash test with another dog at the shelter (tested with a male doggie, so should do as well or even better with a female), did a bit of sniffing, but timid (probably timid due to environment, not about the other doggie). PLEASE email to arrange to meet this very good boy, but still somewhat fearful of the shelter, which is not surprising, since can be a scary place, more so for some. Troy can also be fostered, besides adopted, adoption fee is waived, will be neutered once adopted, no charge.
