Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Malbec is a handsome young Shepherd cross looking for a great new home! He is about 3 years old, up to date on his shots and neutered. He is full grown in size but he is needing to add some extra weight to his body. Malbec is both house and crate trained.
In Malbec's current foster home he is socialized with young children and another dog. He does great with the young children as he is very gentle towards them. He loves the extra little pets as well as when they decide to share their food with him. Malbec took a few days to get used to sharing the attention with another dog but once he was used to it he has done very well. And now loves to play with the other dog.
Malbec's best feature is his ears! He can hear everything and he lets you know he is hearing and where it's coming from. He would make a great watch dog, as he lets you know when someone is coming on and up to your property.
This boy is full of energy, he will need a home that matches his energy as well as a fenced yard. Malbec enjoys running, playing tug of war and fetch. Fetch is his favourite by far as he can show off how fast he really is!
