Meet Rocko –   Rocko is a handsome, spirited German shepherd who’s ready to find his forever home! This guy is the total package for an experienced shepherd-savvy human. Rocko loves to go hiking, on long walks, playing fetch, and riding shotgun on errands with the windows down. At the end of the day, he’ll happily curl up on the couch with you and soak up love.  Rocko is housebroken and well-mannered in a home. He knows basic commands and thrives with structure and consistency.  NOTE: Rocko will require a confident, experienced shepherd owner who can provide the leadership and engagement he craves.  He is not a fan of cats and would do best in a feline-free home.

Roni

German Shepherd Dog

Female, Adult
Beavercreek, OH
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Roni is a smart, loyal, and affectionate dog with a big personality and an even bigger heart. She is an active companion who enjoys regular walks and staying engaged, but she also appreciates her downtime and is happy to relax once her energy needs are met. Roni forms strong bonds with her people and enjoys being part of daily life. She is fully house trained, comfortable with free feeding, and does well with routine and structure. Roni generally gets along with other dogs, does best in a home with no cats, and is suited for a household with older children who understand dog boundaries. She can be protective of her home and may get excited when new people arrive, but she responds well to guidance and basic commands with patience and consistency. This has been an incredibly difficult decision, but with the arrival of a new baby and limited space in our home, we are no longer able to give Roni the level of time, activity, attention, and room she truly needs. Our hope is to find someone.

Story
In January of 2025, I was driving in the Dayton area and saw her in the street. She was filthy and hungry so I decided to temporarily take her in. After trying to find her owners for weeks, I decided to keep her. All the shelters were full and I was not willing to take her to a kill shelter. During her stay, I realized she is one of the sweetest dogs I’ve ever met, but she is uncomfortable around other pets, especially during food time. I decided to take her to a professional behavioral trainer. Although the training improved her behavior around the other dogs, I still continue to see how uncomfortable she is around them. I am looking for a pet free home for her where she will be the only one getting attention. As much as I love her, I want her to have the best life possible. I am going to be VERY picky about who I let adopt her. I am also willing to pay for her new owners to go through 4 training sessions with her former trainer who is familiar with her.
