Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

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


We got Perrin in December 2017 at 8 weeks old. Pure bred German Shepard. We are now pregnant and while he is good with our niece, in addition to our other dog, Perrin is too high energy with visitors and barking. It will be too overwhelming with a baby for us. He is 7 years old this August. He was professionally trained as a puppy. He does well with his basic commands. We have a shock collar we rarely use. Treats do the trick if we need him to do something. He does good with our other dog and other family members dogs but he is not the biggest fan of other dogs/ dog parks. He takes time to warm up and dog parks are overwhelming for him. He took like 30 min with our other dog and then was great! He is a big cuddle bug and loves new toys. He’s great on walks with not pulling. Perrin also has EPI so he requires pancreatic powder in his food every day. About $50/month maybe. We get the prescription through chewy pharmacy.
