Here's what the humans have to say about me:
"Polar", a neutered 5½-yo male, is quite the unusual mix: Corgi and White GSD! Polar is also quite the character. He's timid of strangers, but is friendly once he gets to know you. He's very active, and loves to play with other dogs. He is a regular at the local dog park. Polar is also good with the cat in his home, and is even good with other people's cats. Though Polar is not very tall due to his Corgi build, he weighed a solid 47 lbs on the date of his evaluation.
Polar is well behaved in the house, with one exception: he will try to get food off the counter when given the chance. In fact, Polar is quite food-oriented, though not aggressive about food.
Polar obeys several basic commands, but is more responsive to his male human (Andy) than female human. Andy takes Polar for three walks/day, and feels that Polar would do best in a home in which he continues to receive lots of exercise to burn off that Corgi energy of his. A home with another dog--large or small--is most preferable.
Polar's current owners adopted him as a 1-yo from a rescue in Southern California that is now defunct. The wife had a baby, and is concerned about Polar knocking the baby over with his high energy. Polar does not do well outside--he will bark incessantly to come in.
GSRSV has evaluated Polar and is placing him as a "Program Dog." This means that GSRSV is seeking a new home for Polar through its adoption program while his owners continue to care for him. Polar's adoption fee is $200.
