German Shepherd Dog puppies and dogs in Vermont

Rosie is a 4-month-old, female, shepherd mix, looking for her perfect match! She is full of spunky energy, and once she knows she can trust you (treats are the way to her giant heart), she is overflowing with snuggly sweetness. Once her energy needs (mental and physical) are met for the day, her favorite place to be is snuggled up on the couch with her people. In her short time in foster care, Rosie has been practicing basic manners in the home, potty training, and learning that humans are not all that bad (they usually come with snacks, which are her favorite thing!). Rosie will thrive in a home that continues her training and takes her on fun adventures. Rosie’s perfect person will be understanding, patient, and motivated to have fun bonding with her through continuing her training and giving her mental stimulation and energy outlets as part of her daily routine. She loves sniffing on walks in the woods, playing with her doggy friends, fetching, and playing in the water (she will likely be a strong swimmer!). Rosie gets along great with other dogs, is curious but respectful of cats, rides wonderfully in the car, and is a very smart and fun girl to be around.

Sweet Asha Darling Girl Asha may play a little hard to get when you first meet her, but give her about five minutes and suddenly she’s in your lap acting like you’ve been best friends forever. Once she feels comfortable, she is incredibly loving, affectionate and always ready to roll over for attention. Show Asha a toy and you may see her cutest little quirk: her teeth start chattering like she has something very important to say about it. She enjoys playing with toys, shares them nicely with her people and has a fun, active personality. After getting her energy out, she’s happy to settle in for snuggles. Asha is confident and respectful with larger dogs off leash. She reads their cues well, shares attention nicely and would likely enjoy having a big playful dog friend. Her excitement can look much bigger on leash, so she’ll need someone willing to continue helping her practice calmer greetings. Sweet Asha Darling Girl is looking for an active family who will give her a moment to warm up, plenty of opportunities to play and a cozy spot beside them when she’s ready to cuddle.

Zuko Roo has the looks of a handsome prince and the sense of humor of the friend who always has a joke to tell. Once he knows you, those little husky “woowoos” start coming out, and we’re pretty sure he has some very funny things to say. If only we spoke dog! Between his striking good looks, playful bounces, and the silly side he lets you in on, this boy makes it awfully easy to fall in love. Watch his video and fall in love with this handsome, silly boy: https://youtu.be/6KCyBZyW7QU?si=7WwqE63T2sb7OaWk Zuko is approximately 5 years old and currently weighs 73 pounds. Our best guess is that he’s a German Shepherd/Husky mix, but with animal rescue, breed is always a bit of a mystery. What we do know is that he is one gorgeous guy with plenty of personality to go with that handsome face. Zuko is extremely friendly and loves spending time with people. Get to know him, and you’ll discover that underneath those distinguished good looks is a playful boy who has plenty to say. His little “woowoos” and husky howls are part of his charm, especially when his silly side comes out. Imagine having this guy along for your everyday adventures, then coming home to relax together while he fills you in on his very important dog thoughts. Zuko is dog friendly and has done well with all of the dogs we’ve introduced him to so far. He likes a little time to get acquainted before jumping into play, but once he’s ready, the play bows and happy bounces come out! He enjoys running around, playing chase, and joining in on lighthearted wrestling matches. He can be vocal during play, too, because apparently a good time deserves a little commentary. He also knows when to take a break. Between rounds of fun, you’ll find him exploring the yard or getting loved on by his favorite person. If he joins a home with another dog, a happy-go-lucky, social buddy who enjoys playing and taking breaks would be a wonderful match. Zuko would also be just as happy as your one and only furbaby. He doesn’t need another dog to help him open up or keep him entertained, but he does need a home without kitties. Have a toy handy? Zuko is ready! He loves playing with toys, and a fun game of tug-of-war is especially high on his list. He also loves treats and is a smart guy, which makes additional training a lovely opportunity to spend time together, build your bond, and give him something fun to figure out. Zuko is crate trained and, from what we’ve seen so far, comfortable spending time in his crate. He also seems to understand where the appropriate potty places are and has not had any accidents in the house with us. He’s bringing some wonderful foundations with him as he gets ready for his next chapter. We believe Zuko would do best with a semi-active family who has some experience with, or knowledge of, his guessed breeds and a home with a backyard. We can picture him joining you for hikes, little adventures, and afternoons spent exploring, then settling in at home at the end of the day. A little fresh air, a good game of tug, and time with his people sound like his kind of life. All this handsome boy really wants is someone to love him and spoil him like the prince he is. If your days could use a little more adventure, a lot more love, and the occasional “woowoo,” Zuko might be just the boy to share them with. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

I'm Sweetie, a 4-year-old golden German Shepherd ready to bring adventure and joy into your home! 🐕 At 70 pounds of pure energy, I'm housetrained and love playing with other dogs and kids — I'm happiest when everyone's in on the fun. I'm toy and treat motivated, so training and playtime are my favorite ways to bond with you. 🎾 I'm affectionate, cuddly, and always up for whatever comes next, whether that's a hike or a couch cuddle session. Let's start our next adventure together! ❤️

Ella Still Got It would like you to throw the ball, and if you happen to mention that she’s an estimated seven years old, she’ll be halfway across the yard before you even finish your sentence. So bascially, that is a non-point. Just throw the ball for the pretty lady. This gorgeous girl is nimble, spunky, and so much fun along with the house manners that make you appreciate a dog who’s had a little time to figure things out. Go watch Ella on YouTube to see her fetch skills in action. She’s still got plenty of pep, and she will be delighted to demonstrate! Copy and paste her YouTube link into your browser: https://youtu.be/egZupkvnsE0?si=7jQH7WvbuQQWUSOG Ella is a German Shepherd in looks and a Malinois in spirit, though her breed and age are our best guesses. Nobody seems to have told her about the age part. Open the car door and she’s in with one easy jump, ready to ride. She’s wonderful in the car, and getting onto the couch or a tall bed is just as effortless. Wherever the comfy spot is, Ella can get herself there. Fetch is her favorite thing, and playing with her is an actual joy. She’s enthusiastic without getting wild, happy to chase a ball and equally happy to take a break when you’re finished. You can move on with your day and she’ll settle in the grass or find somewhere to lounge with her ball. She loves a squeaky toy or a stuffy, too, so there are plenty of ways to make this girl happy. One afternoon, after a round of fetch, her ball rolled underneath the couch. Ella quietly lay down beside the spot where it disappeared and waited. No barking, no whining, no frantic demands for a rescue mission. Just a very patient girl keeping track of her favorite possession until someone could lend a hand. We love that level of cool, calm and collected. She’s lovely with other dogs around her toys, too. If a dog friend wants to chase along while she fetches, that’s fine with Ella. If they try to take the ball, she handles that easily as well. She shares toys beautifully and can enjoy her own game while the other dogs join the fun. Friendly dogs who enjoy some play followed by a good rest would make nice companions for her but she would also be perfectly content as an only dog. Ella has lived in a home and is both house and crate trained. She’s attentive, gentle, and a good listener, with an easy way of keeping you company. She’s ready when you want to do something together, but she can settle comfortably when you’re busy. Having spent time with her, we really appreciate how naturally she balances those two things. Her best match would be someone who enjoys a playful dog and will make time for her favorite games, then welcome her inside to relax nearby. Ella brings plenty of fun to an ordinary day, and she already knows a lot about being a good housemate. We love this girl, and we can’t wait for someone to get to enjoy her every day.
