Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Schwartz! ??
Schwartz is a big, handsome Shepherd/Rottweiler mix with an even bigger heart once he gets to know you. Like many dogs of his breeds, he’s loyal, smart, and protective — the kind of companion who bonds deeply with his people.
He can be a bit nervous around new faces at first, but give him some time (and a few treats!) and you’ll see his loving, goofy side shine through. Once you’re in his circle of trust, Schwartz will be your best friend for life.
This big guy loves his toys — especially when there’s a good game of fetch involved — and you’ll often find him zooming around the yard with his favorite squeaky in tow. Walks, treats, and playtime are his favorite parts of the day.
Schwartz does well with playful female dogs but would prefer a home without kids. He’s looking for a calm, patient adopter who understands large breeds and will give him the time and structure he needs to feel secure.
If you’re looking for a loyal, fun-loving companion who will reward your patience with endless love and devotion, Schwartz might just be your perfect match. ?? If you are interested in meeting Schwartz, please reach out to foster@cuyahogacounty.gov to schedule a meet-and-greet with this amazing adoptable boy!
