My story

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

Major is a great family dog!! This handsome, large German Shepherd has the looks and the heart to match. He’s the kind of dog who wants to be wherever his people are—whether that’s going for a walk, guarding the backyard, or just hanging out at home.

He’s smart, alert, and eager to please, which is classic German Shepherd charm. He bonds deeply with his humans and takes his job as “family protector” very seriously—while still having a sweet, goofy side once he feels comfortable.

This big guy would thrive in a home that understands large breeds and can give him the structure, love, and attention he deserves. He’s happiest when he has space to stretch his legs and a person to call his own.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion, an adventure buddy, and a dog who will love you with his whole heart, this shepherd is ready to meet you.
