German Shepherd Dog

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

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Geraldine is about 3 years old (according to the shelter she came from) and a sweet, cuddle, sometimes silly, girl. She knows some basic commands & a few fun tricks. She loves learning new tricks & playing sniff games or tug of war. She does not get over excited inside unless you encourage her. She is careful when inside & overall a good listener. She loves to cuddle with you on the couch. She really loves meeting new people and wants to be friends with everyone. She likes walks well enough but the area I live in does stress her out. She would do really well in a house with a yard that is in the suburbs or at least doesn't have too much hustle & bustle. She is reactive towards other dogs. I have been working with her on this however, the area has too many dogs and is just not the best place to train her. If she had a yard to run around in, she would thrive. She is very smart so I think she can be trained on the reactivity, just not where she is now.

Story
We love us some Numan. He’s all ears & legs and he’s DORKY. About 1.5yo, his personality is basically a 4month old puppy in an adult dog body. He loves all people and will give a very ‘Numan style’ hugs. Then he’ll pick up his prize squeaky chicken and toss it around in a celebratory dance of joy. He’s SIMPLE. Like, smart enough to offer nice behaviors when you ask, but sometimes his tiny brain goes offline and he starts thinking about his chicken again. ‘Doh! Earth to Numan!’ There’s no way you can get frustrated with his simplicity. He’s too well-meaning and pure of heart. His dog friends think he’s fun. Watch our video to see his play style. We’re teaching him all kinds of cool stuff so you can streamline him into your life without too much fuss. Please drop us a line if you want to discuss this larger than life Cartoon Character.

Story
Due to a downsize and relocation I will be unable to take him with me. I've been working on impulse control, recall, and when to heel. Some leash pulling. Loves to play with similar dogs, is still learning fetch/what to do with balls and other toys, likes to ride in the front seat, and is very energetic. May not be recommended for households with small children.
