Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). Meet Taz, who prefers to be called Cecil! He’s goofy and sweet with a little mischief all mixed into an almost 3 year old, 79 pound shepherd with moderate (at times high) energy level. This guy just wants love and to be part of a pack. He will be your shadow following you around the house. He loves pets and belly rubs, but is content to just be wherever his human is. Once Taz sees you're committed, he loves hard. Taz is housebroken and has been working on basic commands and focusing. He is very bright and just needs consistent training and patience. He enjoys long walks and any kind of adventure. Again, he just wants to be with you. He really does not like being left behind. If he does have to stay home, he must be crated. Taz has found comfort with his fur foster brother and would enjoy a companion, especially for playing; however, he would be okay as an only dog. He does not currently have a fenced yard, but would love one. He has a high prey drive so guessing he would do best in a home with no cats. Taz is also a darling with children of all ages. Interested in making Taz 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 . Taz is being fostered in Southern Pines, NC.

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.
