My story

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


PLEASE READ THROUGHLY

Coal is a beautiful German Sheppard and Black Lab mix. He would make someone a wonderful home guard dog. He is snuggly and lazy at times. 9 years old. Wonderfully house trained, and crazy smart, but he does have his quirks and will need an experienced trainer/home. Coal has never bitten anyone on purpose or out of malice. But we have never given him the chance to. He is great with other dogs, and our cat, but has very high anxiety, which seems to be worsening with age. He has broken out of every crate we have ever tried to put him in, even though we have crate trained since he was a puppy. He does not do well with strangers, or going out in public. He also doesn’t enjoy the heat and is NOT off leash trained (he’s a runner). With some training he would be an amazing companion, but needs someone full time who is fully committed. Please let me know if you have any questions at all.
