A striking three-year-old white German Shepherd currently in Jefferson Manor, VA, whose essence is a blend of boundless playfulness and the tender heart of a true companion. With his snow-colored coat, soulful eyes, and ever-wagging tail, Wolfe turns heads wherever he goes, and he’s ready to turn your home into a haven of fun and love!
This 70-pound gentle giant thrives on connection and structure. He’s an intelligent boy who already knows a variety of commands (sit, down, off, bed, and more) and he absolutely shines when given a task or challenge. Wolfe is deeply food- and praise-motivated, which makes training a joy for both pup and person. He’s the kind of dog who wants to get it right and tries his hardest every single time!
Despite his size and strength, Wolfe is wonderfully gentle, especially around kids. He’s had experience with children as young as six and has even shown natural calmness around babies. Fetch and tug-of-war are his favorite games, and he’s always up for a spirited match that ends with tail wags and goofy grins! He’s also incredibly respectful in the home, no furniture chewing, no chaos, just a dog who knows which toys are his and is happy to stick to them.
Wolfe is crate-trained, house-trained, and follows a steady routine of two meals and three to four walks a day. He’s friendly with new people, though he may be a bit wary of men at first, patience and a gentle tone help him warm up quickly. When it comes to other dogs, Wolfe is still learning. Having always been the only pup, he wasn’t socialized early and can be reactive on leash, barking and pulling, often with a wagging tail. His behavior seems rooted in uncertainty, not aggression. With time, consistency, and positive reinforcement, Wolfe is showing potential to build confidence and feel more secure. For now, he’s most comfortable as the only dog in a calm, supportive home.
His ideal home is one filled with patience, play, and love. Maybe even with some kids to throw his ball! Wolfe will be required to be neutered prior to placement in his new home.
Could Wolfe be the loyal, loving buddy your family needs? Reach out to adopt@joyfulpets.com and come meet your new best friend!
