My personality

My story

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

Meet Sheldon, a gentle 8–9-year-old German Shepherd with a heart as big as his paws. He’s mostly calm, but he still loves a little playtime — and there’s nothing he enjoys more than a soothing massage when he’s feeling stressed.

Sheldon is loyal, protective, and loves being around kids (he’s great with 9- and 11-year-olds). He gets along well with our male Golden, but he does not like cats. He will need a patient owner to continue his leash training, as he can be reactive on walks.

He has spondylosis and sometimes needs reminders for potty breaks, but with love, care, and a nice yard to enjoy, Sheldon will reward you with endless loyalty, cuddles, and companionship.
Sheldon isn’t just a dog — he’s a friend, a guardian, and a gentle soul looking for someone to devote their time and heart to him.
