Brody Has Arrived in Wisconsin and Is Ready for His Forever Home
Brody has officially arrived in Wisconsin and is now safe. He is adjusting well to life outside the shelter and is already showing off his happy, playful personality. Now that he’s here, Brody is looking for an adopter who can give him the structure, activity, and love he needs to thrive.
Meet Brody
Brody’s story is one of resilience, potential, and second chances. This 1.5-year-old shepherd mix is a joyful, energetic young dog who is eager to learn and grow with a family of his own.
Brody was found as a stray in Georgia and is missing part of his left ear, which shelter staff believe was likely bitten off by another dog. The injury is fully healed and does not affect him at all. It simply adds to his unique character and charm. Despite whatever he experienced early in life, Brody remains friendly, social, and full of enthusiasm.
Since arriving in Wisconsin, Brody has proven to be a bouncy bundle of puppy energy with a love for play and exploration. He enjoys zooming around, chasing toys, and turning everyday moments into fun. He is smart, goofy, and affectionate, and he thrives on interaction with people.
Brody does well with other dogs and would benefit from an active home that enjoys exercise, enrichment, and continued training. He is still working on his leash manners and will need guidance as he continues learning. His potty training and crate training are still being assessed as he settles into a routine.
With patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, Brody has incredible potential and is eager to become a well-rounded companion.
Brody weighs approximately 45 pounds and is now ready for his forever home in Wisconsin.
