Bolt

American Eskimo Dog German Shepherd Dog

Male, puppy

Plainsboro, NJ

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter,

Story

Bolt is a 6 month old Eskimo, German shepherd, boarder collie mix. He was rescued from a puppy mill in Pennsylvania. We’ve had him for about 3 months and unfortunately our current living situation has caused us to not have enough time to properly care for him. Bolt is very anxious and would do best in a quiet environment with either no other pets or a smaller/younger dog as large dogs cause him fear. He is very sweet, playful, and loving. He knows basic commands like sit and down and is learning stay. Bolt needs a home where he can have someone with him most if not all the time. He is crate trained, but still struggles with being alone for a little bit before settling down. He is up to date on his shots and due to our situation he can’t be neutered while living with us, but we will be willing to pay for his neutering for his new owners. We will be able to provide vet records, his crate, blanket, bed, some toys, and some food. Bolt needs an experienced owner who can train with him.

He is 7 years old and just LOVES to be with people. The minute you get home, he will run round and wag his tail to greet you. Presently Rocky is living with an 8 month old baby and no other animals, but he loves the dog park and has made some friends there. So he may be able to live with another dog, if it's the right dog. Rocky chases the feral cats in the neighborhood so he cannot go to a home with cats. Rocky can be just as happy playing fetch, as he is laying near you watching tv or cuddling on the couch. He loves his food, but no chicken for this boy please as it makes him scratch! If you are looking for a child friendly, very loving german shepherd, come take a look at Rocky! You won't be disappointed.
