Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). Notes from Foster: Cory Lee is a calm, happy Shepherd who loves everyone he meets. He understands multiple commands (sit and come), obeys `no` immediately and is fully housebroken. He loves getting pets and belly rubs. We walked him in our neighborhood and he was not reactive to other dogs barking at fences, though if a dog barks at him face-to-face, he will bark back. He stood still for a bath in the yard without a single complaint. He is curious, attentive, loving and very chill - pretty certain he'd love to cuddle on couches and beds, but he seems to have been trained to stay off of them. His limp is slightly noticeable in the morning when he's first moving around, but after that it did not seem to bother him. We really enjoyed our time with him. He would make a fantastic dog for anyone who enjoys larger breeds.

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.
