My story

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

Meet Yoda, a 1.5-year-old German Shepherd with a gentle soul and a curious mind. Yoda is eager to connect and offers sweet eye contact to the people he trusts. He’s friendly and playful once he gets to know you, though he may be a little cautious at first. This smart boy already knows “sit” and “paw,” and loves a good play session—even if he hasn’t quite figured out the whole “bring the toy back” thing yet! He walks well on leash with just a bit of excited pulling and is always ready to explore. Yoda prefers a respectful approach during mealtime, as he’s shown some mild guarding. Because of this, he’s looking for a dog-savvy home with teens, 16+. With patience, love, and guidance, Yoda will blossom into a loyal companion ready for his next adventure.
