Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Lucky von Luder is a large and majestic 3 year old German Shepherd mix. He loves human interaction and attention. In his former home he had a teenage human sister whom he loved to chill out with. This sweet boy likes playing fetch and will pretty much keep going until he wears you out. Lucky is housebroken and knows his commands. He is very impressive and will instantly do what you ask. He is great in the car and perfect for anyone who takes a lot of long trips; he will be your best companion . He jumps right in and settles down quietly as happy as can be. Even though he can walk well next to other dogs with someone who has good leash control, he would do best as an only dog. You are all he needs in his world and wants nothing more than just be by your side. But please, no fuzzy little critters, small dogs, cats, squirrels etc. Lucky believes they only exist to be chased and that he does with all his might.

Based on our experience, Westside's current thinking is to usually match first-time shepherd owners with a mix versus a purebred shepherd. Mixes are "softer" and somewhat more malleable. Exceptions can be made, however, for first-time adopters who show the confidence and leadership tendencies that purebreds will respect and respond to. Counselors have to use good judgment in assessing the attributes of the adopter, as well as of the dog. If you have doubts, get a second opinion from Robin or another experienced counselor.
