Story
I rescued Hershey, he was 3 months old. They told me he was a retriever mix. Well he is part GSP, PIT, BOXER AND probably some retriever. He is alot of dog. I live in a condo and I just can't give him the exercise he needs. He needs more tan just a walk. He needs abig yard he can run in. He is very loving, very protective, and teritorial. He is also very smart. He would make someone a good hunting dog, he is obsessed with squirels and constantly snifing and looking for anything else. I hate to do this but iy's for his own good. I feel he would be much happier. He is good with my teenage grandsons. But not sure about little ones. He is very strong!!

Story
We got Birdie two years after bringing home our first GSP, and the two of them were inseparable. They kept each other busy and active until our older GSP was unfortunately injured in an accident with another dog. Since then, he has slowed down significantly, and Birdie just isn’t getting the activity and engagement she needs.Birdie would thrive with an active family who has the time and energy to keep up with her and continue working with her. She is incredibly smart, listens well, and is eager to learn. If you’re a hunter, she has all the potential to become an amazing hunting companion with a little training.More than anything, Birdie loves with her whole heart. She’s affectionate, loyal, and the best snuggler you could ask for. We want to find her a home where she can live her happiest, fullest life with people who will love her as much as she loves them.
