SHEP***foster or adopt***

Shepherd Mix

9 years, Male, Large

***FOSTER OR ADOPT***

Shep is a stunning shepherd mix who at at 8 years old, has the heart of a playful pup.  He is a goof who loves toys, treats and belly rubs and is full of life, affection, and tail wags. Shep is currently struggling with the stress of kennel life and really needs a calm, loving home where he can decompress.  He would flourish in the quiet and attention available in a home. For that reason, he is available to foster as well as adopt.

Shep weighs 68 lbs but not to worry.  This more mature gent has good manners, doesn't jump, and takes treats gently.   He is really sweet, listens well and pretty low energy for the most part.  Check out the video in his profile where you can see more of his personality.  Our volunteers took him out for a nice walk and got a glimpse of the amazing dog he truly is. With a little time and patience, Shep will shine — he just needs that chance.

Shep can be picky about his doggy friends so if you have a dog in the home, bring them to meet n greet to see if there are get 8 paws up.   It may be due to the stress and noise at the kennel, but in a more quiet environment and with proper introductions, we have seen him do well with other dogs. 

Foster or adopt this sweet boy and help him become the happy, relaxed companion he’s meant to be.  If you think a handsome boy that is past that frenetic stage could be for you , apply at www.caninecollective.org.
