Meet RJ: Your Big-Hearted Protector with a Playful Streak
Hey there, I’m RJ! I’m a 6-year-old red and rust Doberman with natural ears, a docked tail, and a whole lot of love to give. I’m a big guy; 96 pounds of muscle, mischief, and heart, but I promise, most of that weight is pure affection (and maybe a little bit of counter-surfing skill).
Personality:
I’m playful, loving, and full of energy! Even though I’m six, I’m basically a puppy in a grown-up body. I love people, kids, and other dogs, and I thrive when I’m part of the action. I’m strong, silly, and loyal to a fault. We’re not sure how I feel about cats or small animals yet, but given my size and enthusiasm, maybe let’s start slow there.
My Story:
I was adopted a few years ago by one of Georgia Doberman Rescue’s biggest supporters. He and I were inseparable. He was my person, and I made it my mission to protect him. When he became ill and collapsed, I stayed right by his side until help arrived. My devotion ran deep, but now that he can no longer care for me, GDR welcomed me back with open arms. I’m ready to find my next forever family to love and protect.
Manners & Training:
I’m crate-trained, potty-trained, and walk well on a leash. I’m also a great passenger in the car, especially when I get to ride in a crate. I do have one tiny flaw… I’m a bit of a counter surfer. If it smells good and it’s within reach, I consider it fair game. Otherwise, I’m a total gentleman.
Health & Vetting:
I’m neutered, microchipped, and up to date on all my vaccines (rabies, Bordetella, and combo). I’m also heartworm negative and free of intestinal parasites, so I’m healthy, happy, and ready to go home.
Why You’ll Love Me:
If you’re looking for a loyal, goofy, and protective companion who’ll stick by you through thick and thin, I’m your guy. I’m strong, affectionate, and full of heart—always ready for a game of fetch, a long walk, or a good cuddle on the couch.
So what do you say? Got room for a big, loyal lovebug in your life? Apply to adopt me today!
Love,
RJ
