Simon is Looking For:  His forever family! German shepherds are a special breed - they're super attached to their humans and Simon is looking for that attachment - to give and get love, to be a loyal companion. He's also a young boy with all that great energy to burn on sniffy walks, romps in parks, and all the adventures his family can dream up. What do you say? Is Simon the companion you have been seeking?

 

What Simon Knows: Simon spent some time on the Dogs Playing For Life Canine Center campus in Florida. There, he received basic training and enrichment. He worked on the Sit and Place commands, loose leash walking, and sitting at open doors, waiting to be released to go out. He also got to play with enrichment toys such as food-filled Kongs and food puzzles. 

What My Foster Says About Me:  Simon is a big love bug and wants to shower people in love! He's very affectionate and also incredibly smart! He's picking up on training really well. He's super snuggly and wants to be next to us all the time.  He loves toys and treats, and will entertain himself with toys if my resident dog doesn't want to wrestle with him (which is his favorite thing to do).

Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training. 

TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and spay/neuter. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online   at   bit.ly/adoptaluckydog  .

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The adoption process begins when you submit an adoption application either online or at an adoption event. The individual responsible for the dog you are interested in adopting - a position we call the “adoption coordinator” - will then set up a time to discuss your application over the telephone. The adoption coordinator will check your vet reference to make sure all current and past pets were kept up-to-date with their shots and medical care. The adoption coordinator will also set up a home visit with one of our trained volunteers. That individual will come to your home to ensure that it is a safe environment, to confirm that everyone in the home is on board with adopting a dog, and to discuss any other questions you may have about dog adoption!

Go meet their pets

Our adoption events are held each weekend. A schedule of times and locations can be found at www.luckydoganimalrescue.org.
