Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Written by Mars, a 12-week-old 18lb male German Shepherd.
--------------------------------------------
Mars here! Guys, I gotta tell you that I am one excited pup here! It shouldn't be too much longer and I will be in a home of all my own! I am excited to go on adventures with my family. I am one of those pups that can go from 0 to 100 if the situation calls for it. If everyone is just chilling, so am I. If the kids are running around and playing and my family is active, so I am. I am right there in the middle of everything! <3
I like playing with rope toys if the other dogs will play with them with me. If it's just me, I usually prefer the squeaky toys. I will happily chase after any thrown toy, just don't expect me to bring it back! I would probably enjoy being active outside the home. I think I would also do just fine with a large yard to get my energy out and then the rest of the day I like to lounge on the couch. I tend to follow my people in just about everything. If they are sitting I am sitting with them. If they are gardening, I am running around and playing.
I am familiar with a doggie door and with it am fully potty trained. I am also kennel trained. I am given free roam of part of the house with access to a doggie door sometimes and do well.
I am a very friendly boy and will happily give licks to anyone who comes over. I also do great with other dogs and kids!
What do you say? Think we are meant to be together? Apply for me at https://www.emailmeform.com/builder/form/hx000BP7nbQvjHX49Uur80FV3
Please I am begging you though, only apply to adopt me if you can keep me forever. If you can't keep me through ALL of life's changes, don't take away my chance at forever with someone else.
Please don't be the one that makes me have to be passed around a few months/years down the line because things got "ruff". That just isn't fair to me.
I would NEVER give up on you, so please don't give up on me. I want to be your forever...not your until dog.

FROM HIS FOSTER MOM ↓
~Mars is going to be a very loyal companion whether it’s an adult or a child. He is definitely Mr. social but he does have a taste for stinky shoes so be careful. He is super smart and catches onto things very quickly, with the help of treats of course. He works really well as a floor cleaner too! Any food you drop will be promptly picked up and your floor will be licked clean in seconds
Mars does very well with kids (ages 5 and up that I’ve seen) but may not know his own size while playing with kids any younger. Does very well with dogs. Likes to play as long as dogs or people are playing with him but he is more on the lazy side~
