If you know German Shepherds, you know they are a special breed. Due to their high intelligence levels, they require a family who knows how to fulfill their needs and understand their thought processes.
Chex is a one-year-old German Shepherd mix weighing approximately 60 pounds. This handsome boy has German Shepherd smarts. He knows to ring the bells hanging on the door to let his people know he needs to go out to do his business. He rests quietly in his crate at night, but he also enjoys sleeping on the couch or the floor. Chex has learned several commands, such as sit, stay, lay, down and even please. He is working on his leash manners, and as a strong boy, he will need help controlling his strength while on a leash.
Chex’s favorite toys are the squeaky types! He views his toys as a challenge and loves to see how quickly he can tear them apart. Yep, sturdy toys are needed for this tough chewer. He has a lot of energy and loves to play with his people. You don’t need to do much if he has zoomies; he will do all the running for you. This athletic guy is ready to learn the agility course and would probably dominate his competition.
Chex adores the kiddos in his foster home. His foster mom told us that he adjusts his play intensity according to the child’s size and age. The kids in the home are all over the age of 10, and it would be best if his forever home is aware he is very protective of “his” kids. We believe Chex felt the need to protect himself and the women and children in his prior home. He is looking for a home where he is allowed to trust on his terms. It will take time and patience for him to learn he is safe and does not need to protect anyone in the home.
If you know you are Chex’s hero, please fill out an adoption application to set up a meet and greet. You can do that at PawsitiveTailsKIC.org. He is neutered and up to date on vaccinations, as well as flea, tick, and heartworm control. His adoption fee is $175.
Chex deserves a happily ever after; are you the one to give that to him?

Where are you located?
Pawsitive Tails does not have a physical location. All of our dogs live in loving foster homes throughout the Kansas City and Topeka area. This allows fosters to get to know each dog personally, so we can find the very best home for them.
What are your hours?
As a foster based rescue, every person with Pawsitive Tails is a volunteer. Because we do not have a facility, we do not have “open” hours but can be contacted between 8am and 9pm.
Can I stop in to visit dogs and play with puppies?
No. We require an approved application to be on file before meeting our dogs/puppies. In addition, our dogs live in foster homes, so we must work around the foster parents’ schedule.
