My story

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

Grady von Grauel is an amazing 1–2-year-old, larger-sized German Shepherd mix. Grady is a friendly boy with an engaging and happy personality. He's got a luscious coat and bigger frame, just a guess but perhaps in addition to German Shepherd he's part Bernese Mountain Dog. Grady is looking for an active home with people who can handle his size and will find satisfaction from training a smart and motivated dog to help him learn boundaries. In some respects he's just an extra-big puppy. (A home without small children or cats would be best.) Grady wants to please and already knows his basic commands (sit, down, paw). He's also housebroken and crate-trained. On leash he might just need a reminder or two and then he walks nicely by your side. He does well around other dogs, on walks and in playgroups, although thus far he seems more into people.

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.
