TYSON - GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Posted Breed: German Shepherd Dog / Mixed. Meet Tyson, our 5 year-old, 80 pound German Shepherd! According to Wikipedia, Tyson is a male given name of old French origin meaning 'high-spirited', 'fire'. I am not sure who named him but the name fits him. Tyson is full of energy and has the constant desire to play. As a result, he will need a home with a six foot fence. He will give you the toy only after he circles you a few times and then sits for you to throw it, and will return.... again and again. If you don't want to throw it, he will prance around the yard with it in his mouth. Tyson will play by himself with a hard, large Jolly ball as long as you let him. Soft stuffies and squeekees do not stand a chance. Tyson willingly and politely accepts treats. He will sit for meals and does not mind human touches while eating. He pulls on leash and enjoys car rides. He does well with other dogs and currently lives with a female German Shepherd. He has not met any cats yet. Tyson is not aware of his size so he would do best in a home with older children. Tyson is crate trained and housebroken. If you're ready to make Tyson a part of your family, please contact your adoption coordinator. If you do not yet have an adoption coordinator, please complete an adoption application at .freedomgermanshepherdrescue . Tyson is being fostered near Fayetteville, NC.
