Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Theo von Belle is an adorable 8 week old Shepherd/Husky mix puppy. Theo is 100% cuddle bug and loves his humans. He is whip smart and calm. He already recognizes his name (although it can be changed), is almost potty trained and sleeps through the night. Theo loves his doggie foster siblings and follows them around; when not sitting in foster mom’s lap.
Theo von Belle is in a foster home, offsite, and is NOT at our rescue location in Los Angeles.

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.
