(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Jack is a newcomer to the countryside, after his start in the inner city. Jack is of an imposing size, will and presence. He has had little training in his past and will need that. He is not for the faint of heart and will need a firm, savvy, shepherd experienced person to keep him in the gentle giant realm. He likes his toys, and treats etc., and he likes his walks too. He has a prey drive that cannot be adopted to a home with cats.

Story
Alissa upon arrival has been a favorite here with volunteers. She is known for carrying her ball, and for liking her walks. She has completed a prison sponsored socializing program, and has returned and is available. She settled in well at this facility. Alissa has a formidable prey drive, so unfortunately no cats as housemates for her.

Story
Adele initially arrived from a neighboring state, and has done well taking in the new routine. She is very alert active, and physical. In her own way has worked on figuring things out quietly. She has been to "finishing school" at a prison dog socializing program for a few weeks, and is back and available. She will be telling us how she did in the upcoming days.

Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Miss Peri is a 4-year-old sweetheart who has paid her dues by being tossed around family to family. Now that she has completed obedience training she would really like a forever home and family to call her own. She is reliably house trained and is caught up on all her vaccines. She has dignified crate manners and loves to eat! She enjoys her foster sisters but would probably like to be your sole focus. She loves attending group class in the Harrisburg area and is entitled to training support for life at no additional charge. Please note she is in foster care with her trainer near the Harrisburg area. If you would like to see her please email adopt@charwillsrescue.com so we can get this coordinated.

Eden

German Shepherd Dog

Female, Adult
New Ringgold, PA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
This is Eden, a beautiful sable that is leaving her mill days behind. She is a gem in the rough, and has earned a trip to a socialization program at a nearby prison, and she will work on her comfort level with life an a controlled manner. She is smaller, stout, and looks to you from a distance. A shy side from knowing not much beyond a run as her life. She no doubt does not understand affection very well and will take time and practice. A joy to be around will be her next endeavor when she returns from the program in a few weeks.
