Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Rocky is a handsome 6.5 year old German Shepherd. We live in San Francisco with 2 cats. While fostering Rocky with a German Shepherd rescue organization, I fell in love and adopted him. Rocky likes people, especially those that like dogs! On walks Rocky is friendly to people, but sometimes has anxiety toward other dogs. Since working with a trainer, and socializing at doggie daycare, Rocky is calmer toward other dogs on walks. Rocky peacefully lived with another dog for 3 years. Due to my aging, I have made the difficult decision to re-home Rocky to a younger more active household. Since I am very attached, I am also open to sharing Rocky within San Francisco. It would be a plus if his new guardians(s) has experience and continues to enforce Rocky's training achievements. He loves to run, play ball, and go for car rides! He is very huggable. Rocky answers sirens with a wolf howl! Rocky is a happy dog with a smile that makes me smile.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
He’ll throw his own ball, sleep in positions you’re surprised are even physiologically possible, and is generally a very sweet, well behaved dog. People seeing him play think he’s uniquely wild, and people seeing him at your home will think he’s uniquely lazy and chill. He’s lived in both rural and urban settings, and will not bark when other dogs bark, the doorbell is rang, or people knock. Great companion for someone who works from home. Yard isn’t necessary, but he does really love a yard to nap in. Has happily lived with a baby/toddler and all their shenanigans. Looking for another home as he retires from service dog life and due to landlord-related circumstances. Overall a very sweet, gentle, and well trained dog. He absolutely thrives on having other dogs nearby, and is happiest when getting to play with other dogs daily. He loves a good off-leash sprint, wrestle session, or game of chase with his humans or another dog. Great with babies, toddlers, dogs, strangers, etc.

Odette

Belgian Malinois Mixed Breed (Medium)

Female, 6 yrs
San Francisco, CA
Size
(when grown) -
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Odette is a cheerful and spirited Belgian Malinois who loves the outdoors and can keep up with an active lifestyle. She is gentle and affectionate, often giving sweet kisses to her fosters and handling her treats and toys with care. Playful and social, Odette enjoys the company of other dogs when properly introduced. Odette thrives when she has a job to do and appreciates a home where her humans can delegate tasks to her. She loves to stay productive but also cherishes essential snuggle time. She is well-behaved in the house, enjoys cuddling on the couch, and sleeps on the bed near the pillow. However, Odette is not suited for first-time dog owners, homes with small children, small pets, or cats due to her high prey drive. A fence might slow her down, but it won't stop her from chasing critters. Belgian Malinois are historically herding animals and can make excellent guard dogs. Odette would thrive in a home with ample space to roam and attentive humans who can provide her with the mental and physical stimulation she needs. Additionally, Odette loves camping, making her an ideal companion for outdoor adventures. She is ready to begin her forever adventure.
