My story

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

Fritz is a 3-year-old male German Shepherd who likely spent much of his life outdoors and is just beginning to learn what it means to be part of a family. Despite his rough start, he is a sweet, gentle boy with soft eyes and a kind heart. Fritz is eager to please, takes treats gently, and leans in for affection once he feels comfortable. He enjoys exploring on walks, especially stopping to sniff, and responds well to gentle guidance on leash. He knows “Sit,” loves squeaky and stuffed toys, and happily trades toys for treats. Fritz would do best in a home with teens and up and an adopter who can offer patience, structure, and continued positive training. With time and consistency, this good boy is ready to blossom into a loyal and loving companion.
