Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Any WICKED fans out there? This fine gent is named Fiyero, he is a sweet guy and a giant fluff ball. He was a stray for about a week and no owner stepped up or came forward. He can be cautious at first but once he realizes you mean well, he’s all about you! One of our volunteers took him inside cause he was out in the cold  and he’s done well. Definitely has things to learn, we are unsure if he was dumped but its possible. So far he has met some other pups and the cat through the kennels and hasn’t reacted really, just seems unsure. He appears to be one that will need slow introductions! He enjoys toys and his favorite show is Clifford! Fiyero enjoys being out side and  will jump up and hug you also! So far he has not had accidents inside and is crate and leash trained. Who can give this fella his forever home so he can continue… dancing through life! We do believe Fiyeros adopter needs solid experience with German Shepherds! He is spot on for the personality! Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 31, 2026, 3:09 pm
