My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Jacob (AKA Jake) is a GORGEOUS sable 2-3 year old pure bred German Shepherd. He is such a good boy! It has been a joy to foster him! Jake was displaced after a divorce at no fault of his own. He was very confused, but has adjusted well. He is housebroken and crate trained. Jake gets along well with his foster families dogs although we introduced slowly. He seemed a little 'standoffish' with the other dogs at first but showed NO aggression. It is apparent that Jake has had some obedience training as he is very well behaved. He walks well on a leash with gentle instruction. He is VERY smart as is the case with most GSD's. Jake is absolutely stunning in person! He weighs approx 80 pounds.

We have been told Jake was raised with children, a cat and 2 small dogs. He seems to love eveyone he meets. Very friendly and social.

We have noticed he has displayed some food guarding behavior with the other dogs like 'burying' the dish, and once in awhile gives a little grumble when they walk passed..again NO aggression. We are working on this with him and he is responding well to correction.

Jake would be a great addition to a home that is knowledgeable about the breed and can continue working with him!
