My story

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

Meet our very handsome pup named Shadow! Shadow was surrendered us after his owner could no longer care for him properly. Shadow is about 1.5 years old and we think he is some kind of Shepherd and Rottweiler mix. He is a large boy, but he is not overly jumpy or super rambunctious. Shadow does still have a puppy personality, but he listens well to correction. He already knows how to sit, give paw, and lay down. Shadow is very attentive when we are outside with him. He tends to follow us right at our side when we walk around the backyard. He will chase after a tennis ball, but he doesn't have much of a ball drive. He seems to prefer soft, squeaky toys. Shadow will need regular exercise to keep him happy, but he is not overly energetic most of the time. He will make a great companion for someone who is looking for a smart, attentive dog who wants to please. Shadow can go to a home with children 12 years old and older who have large dog experience.

If there are other pets in the home they must be licensed (if a dog) and up to date on vaccinations.
