, barely transitioning into adolescence. He seems to get more handsome with each passing month. Logan is great with kids and other dogs. He loves being around them both. Loud kids playing are just fine with him, and he doesn't mind rough-and-tumble play with friendly dogs. Logan draws confidence from his older dog buddy, so he needs a home with another playful dog. (He is not available to be placed him as an "only dog.") Logan lives with cats in his foster home, but he needs some guidance about not harassing kitties. He wants to chase and play with them. With supervision and direction, he will leave them alone though. For a young dog, he is very polite and gentle. He learns very quickly, and he's eager to please. He's been learning some skills in his foster home, and he's now giving handshakes upon request. He will be a lot of fun to take through an obedience course! For all his fun-loving spirit, he's a soft, tender soul. He's very submissive. His instinct is to submissively piddle around other dogs and people at first. This is a behavior that is fixed over time by building up a dog's self-esteem. He needs an adopter committed to positive reinforcement, patience, and gentleness with him. Like any GSD puppy, Logan will explore and get into mischief if not supervised. He wants to be taught the right thing to do. He can be a little noisy, especially when his person leaves the house (he howls occasionally, but not for long). He may not be suited for apartment living, for that reason. He's already crate trained. His house training is still a work in progress, but his foster home is helping him to learn. Logan has tested negative for heartworms (but young dogs should be retested in 6 months, as false-negatives are always possible). ADOPTION FEE: $300 Upon adoption, all dogs are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, and microchipped. Information about our adoption fees and our adoption process is available on our website: http://www.RedStickGermanShepherds.org.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
