What is Rehome?
If you see pets listed by a private owner, it means that they’re adoptable through Adopt a Pet’s Rehome program – the safe and reliable way to find a loving new home for your pet.
Shadow is a beautiful and athletic 1 year old English Shepherd. He is affectionate, potty trained, loves being around the kids, and up to date with shots. He does bark a lot at strangers and has anxiety with outside family members. He does great with our old dog and cat but not good with any other animals outside the home. I do not recommend him for a family that already has a dog for this reason, I think he would possibly be fine with a female dog though. unfortunately, he herds the children with nips and I feel like I run out of resources to help him and cannot risk anymore kids getting nips (he’s never made anyone bleed, it’s like a herding nip). I believe he is trainable. He does not herd my kids anymore but he does herd their friends. I wish I could keep him and trust him but it makes me very nervous with neighbors coming over while he is in the backyard. I pray someone will love him and work with him! He is a great companion.
