Story
Beautiful 2 year-old white male German Shepherd looking for a loving, experienced home. He is a wonderful, loyal, intelligent dog with lots of personality and would make a great companion for the right person or family.He would do best with an owner who understands the breed and can provide him with structure, exercise, attention, and continued training. He is not comfortable around young children, so an adult-only home would be the best fit for him. I want to be upfront about this so he can find the right home where everyone will be happy and safe.

Story
We got Zuko a year ago when he was just two months old. I care for my three young grandsons (after the passing of my daughter/their mother) and thought it would be a good gift. My 85 year old mother lives with us and she has asthma and COPD so is actually allergic to him. He sheds alot and the boys don’t keep up with brushing him. He’s a sweet dog and listens when it’s quiet. When it’s noisy and lots of other people around he gets excited and doesn’t listen as much. Overall we are sad to have to give him away. We would love for him to find a loving home. He goes out every 4 hours (4 times a day) and eats twice a day with two snacks (usually apples, sweet potatoes or a dog biscuit).

Please contact Darlene at 302-312-5129 (fureverpawsdogrescue@gmail.com) for more information about this pet.  This dog is located in Newark, DE. Visit us on the web at https://fur-everpaws.com/fur-ever-paws-adoption-application/ to submit an application. Please contact the foster directly at 302-312-5129 (text or call) or via email at fureverpawsdogrescue@gmail.com Fur Ever Paws Dog Rescue is a small no kill rescue operating in the Delaware/Maryland area. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit that rescues and places homeless, neglected or abused dogs from high-kill shelters in the south into loving, responsible committed and permanent homes. We feel our comprehensive adoption process which includes not only taking the time to match the dog to the prospective new owner but helping to educate that owner in responsible dog care, allows us to find the best homes for our little buddies and the best companions for you! Each week we use USDA certified transports to bring dogs from high-kill shelters in the south to our fosters where they all receive the appropriate medical care and are placed in nurturing loving homes while they await placement in their forever homes. Interested in one of our dogs? Great! Now that you've seen them here you'll need to go to our website where you'll find our list of adoptable dogs (updated every week). Then, it's just a simple process of finding a dog you're interested in and filling out an application on our site. Once we receive your application, whoever is fostering that particular dog will contact you and do a short over the phone interview to complete your application process. If everything works out, they will set an appointment with you so come out and "visit" with the dog you're interested in (we want to make sure that not only are you a good fit for the dog but that the dog will fit with you). If everything works out, you'll be able to take rover (or spot, or jax) home with you that very day. A couple of things you should know: We can't hold dogs over the phone or via email. Adoption fees vary based on breed. All of our dogs have been vet checked and dewormed (if possible due to age, additional treatment may be needed). We provide a spay or neuter voucher to all of our adopters. ​ August 29, 2026, 12:26 pm
