My name is Axel!

We are temporarily fostering a German Shepherd/Lab mix. He was surrendered to us so that he would not go to the pound. The owner's circumstances changed and were devastated they could not keep their pet. We unfortunately cannot keep him due to our schedules but would love to find him a loving and amazing home. He used to be crated all day every day so he does well in a crate as needed but we do not crate him. We will give his crate, food container, toys, etc that were given to us. He is gentle with kids, not food or dog aggressive, does not walk you, silly, cuddly and just wants attention. He is always smiling. He is a little talkative but not overly. He would be amazing with a family with kids, newly married couple or retired couple. He will be 5 in January. If you or someone you know wants him, please let us know. He really is a sweet dog. He has basic training and has great recall. He came to us overweight but is losing weight easily.
