Story
🐾 Meet Brian! 🐾
Meet Brian, an 8-month-old Anatolian Shepherd/German Shepherd mix with a heart full of joy and a personality that lights up every room! Brian is the perfect mix of playful, loyal, and loving — a young dog ready to take on life’s adventures with his forever family by his side.
This bubbly, outgoing boy is always up for anything! Whether it’s a long walk around the neighborhood, a day exploring trails, or just relaxing at home, Brian is happiest when he’s with his people. He’s an affectionate companion who loves being part of the action but also knows how to wind down and enjoy some cuddle time on the couch.
Brian walks well on a leash but, like most young pups, could use some additional leash manners and basic obedience training. With his intelligence, food drive and eagerness to please, he’s sure to pick things up quickly — especially with positive reinforcement and consistency.
He’s a big fan of kids, greeting them with tail wags and a gentle, happy energy. Brian can be a bit selective with other dogs, but he’s loved the majority he’s met so far. A proper introduction will go a long way in helping him make new canine friends. When it comes to cats, Brian showed no reactivity when walked through the cat room at the shelter — so a feline sibling could very well be in his future! Always do slow, proper introductions when introducing a new animal.
Brian is still a young, growing boy who would thrive in an active home that can give him plenty of exercise, structure, and love. With a family willing to guide him and continue his training, Brian will blossom into an amazing lifelong companion.
If you’re looking for a loyal, fun-loving, and affectionate pup to join your adventures and your heart, Brian is your guy! ❤️
Come meet Brian at the Manteca Animal Shelter — he’s ready to find his forever home and start his next big adventure! 🏡🐾
