Bio:
Woody is your quintessential German Shepherd — loyal, intelligent, and eager to bond deeply with his person. He’s around 5 years old, weighs about 80 pounds, and is ready to find his forever home.
He came to Speak almost two years ago after his previous owners could no longer provide the life he deserved. Since then, Woody and his sibling, Hayes, have been in foster and boarding care. While it was once thought the two were bonded, Woody has shown he’s ready to thrive on his own.
Woody takes a little time to warm up to new people — it took about two weeks for him to trust his foster fully — but once he does, he’s incredibly loyal and affectionate. He loves to follow his person around, and if you stay still long enough, he’ll curl up nearby to keep you company.
He’s a bit under socialized with both people and other dogs, but he’s made great progress. He’s done wonderfully being separated from his sibling and now enjoys a more home-like environment. Woody has minimal reactivity when given calm, clear communication. Like most Shepherds, he’ll bark at strangers behind a fence or door, but it’s short-lived and easily managed.
Woody craves structure, consistency, and plenty of head rubs. He enjoys chewing on sticks and toys but isn’t too interested in chasing balls or flirt poles. His previous foster ran with him regularly. He also LOVES to swim and would happily spend the day splashing around.
Woody would do best with someone experienced with German Shepherds who can provide clear leadership and an active lifestyle. A home with space to roam and explore would make him happiest. He’s untested with cats and small animals, and while he might do well with a calm, established female dog, proper introductions will be important.
Training Perks:
Woody comes with three free 1-on-1 training sessions from Wolfman’s Canines, plus a $1,000 training voucher toward a 4-week Board & Train program — which also includes three additional follow-up sessions!
Woody is neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines/prevention and being fostered in Galena, Ohio.
