About Shadow

German Shepherd / Lab
Age: Puppy
Sex: Male

**Meet Shadow! ��%90%BE�%9D%A4��%8F** Shadow is a sweet, energetic, and affectionate boy with a big personality and lots of love to give! This handsome guy absolutely loves people and enjoys soaking up all the attention he can get! He's an enthusiastic, fun-loving boy who would love to find a family willing to spend time with him, provide plenty of enrichment, and help him continue learning. Shadow is also a smart cookie! He already knows 'sit' and 'down' and is extremely food-motivated, making him a wonderful candidate for continued positive-reinforcement training. He's eager to engage with people and would benefit from continued work on his basic manners, particularly leash walking and keeping all four paws on the ground when greeting his favorite humans. When it comes to other dogs, Shadow has shown interest in interacting and playing, but his enthusiasm can sometimes get the best of him! He has a very energetic, rambunctious play style and can become overstimulated during interactions. During his evaluation, he struggled to recognize and respect another dog's corrections, occasionally responding with barking, snapping, and lunging when frustrated. Because of this, Shadow would benefit from continued socialization work with an experienced handler, slow and controlled introductions, and careful consideration of compatibility with any potential canine housemates. His ability to safely share a home with another dog has not yet been established. Shadow has so many wonderful qualities, and with a patient, committed family willing to provide structure, exercise, and positive reinforcement, he has the potential to become a wonderful companion. **Please note:** Shadow has not been formally evaluated around children while in our care. This does not necessarily mean he is unsuitable for a home with children; his compatibility is simply unknown. Shadow is currently available for adoption through **Manteca Animal Services in Manteca, California.** Come meet this lovable boy and see if you could be the one to give him the forever home he deserves! �%9D%A4��%8F
