Description
Posted Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). I have heard people call me beautiful. What do you think? I might be a bit older in "dog years," but I’m happy to say that I’ve still got spunk and energy. As is typical for my breed, I am very smart. I also bond very quickly with whomever I identify as my “person.” Not only will I actively seek out love and cuddles but I will also be protective of you. I am still learning to be okay with being left home alone and to relax while walking on a leash but I am very responsive to re-direction, correction and guidance. I love chew sticks, balls, and other toys, but right now, I still take time to get used to a new environment, so I often will put down a toy or ball to come over and get more hugs, scratches, and cuddles, and just check in. I will make a deeply loving companion to anyone who might adopt me, and I think I am well worth adopting! If you are interested in meeting Phoenix, please download the Adoption Questionnaire, fill it out and email it back to us at infofarescue or fax (310) 362-0321. You can also meet this and/or other available dogs at our weekend adoptions. [Phoenix is about 8 years old and weighs 65 lbs.] (2302)

Overview:
The German Shepherd Dog, a truly iconic breed, originated in Germany in the late 19th century, primarily for herding sheep. They are easily recognizable by their athletic, medium-to-large build, typically weighing between 50-90 pounds, with a distinct double coat that can be black and tan, sable, or solid black. Known for their intelligence and loyalty, German Shepherds possess a remarkably trainable and courageous temperament, making them exceptional working dogs in fields like police and service work. While generally good with families when properly socialized, their high energy levels and need for mental stimulation make them unsuitable for apartment living without significant daily exercise. Prospective owners should be aware of common health concerns such as hip and elbow dysplasia, as well as degenerative myelopathy, underscoring the importance of responsible breeding and regular veterinary care.
