Here's what the humans have to say about me:
***COURTESY LISTING***
Apache is a handsome, 6yo, Shepherd mix. He’s a very sweet, somewhat timid boy, who lived with children in his previous home.
He is learning his basic obedience, and working on being less reactive to other dogs while out walking and is doing great!
Apache loves butt scratches, food and affection from his people.
Apache was rescued from a high-kill shelter with his best buddy, a corgi named Scrappy. They are a dynamic duo and we’d love to see them get adopted together, BUT are willing to separate them in order to find his best-suited home.
Apache walks well on-leash, knows sit and focus, is neutered and fully vaccinated!
We are looking for a home with a minimum of a 6’ fence, but he’s a tall fellow, so he should not be left alone outside without supervision or a fully-enclosed kennel-run with a top.
Apache would need to meet his potential family at least 3-4x before being adopted, and would need to meet any other dog that may be in the house at least the same amount of times. He would be best as the only dog, unless he were adopted WITH scrappy, but we are willing to try introducing him to any dog already in the home to see if it would work. He prefers smaller dogs to larger ones.
Apache has a beautiful wolf-like howl that will melt your heart. He’s got oodles of adorable personality and everyone who meets him absolutely falls in love, and we know you will too!
Apache is a very ‘soft’ dog and does not do well with harsh handling - he learns best with positive reinforcement and redirection. Although this is a courtesy post, we will offer free basic obedience group classes for his entire life- you just have to show up with a can-do attitude!
