JAKAB - GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog. We are excited to share that we are nominated for Sacramento's Animal Nonprofit Favorites this year! We need your help by voting every day for our cherished shepherds. Please vote daily from each device until August 15th at votesacramento. Look for us in the Service Category under Animal Nonprofits. Thank you for being our heroes! Get ready to meet a handsome boy! We are excited to announce the arrival of a stunning long-coat German Shepherd who is about to steal hearts. This one-year-old bundle of joy has charm and a love for people, but he may need some guidance with his manners since he has been a free spirit. Well-loved by the shelter staff, who have known him since he was six months old, he is a favorite for good reason. This sweet boy gets along well with other dogs and craves companionship. Despite a challenging past that involved wandering with his small breed buddy due to inadequate fencing at his original home—leading to numerous visits to the shelter—he is now ready for a fresh start. What he longs for is a forever home where he can truly flourish and showcase his lovable nature. We can confirm that this handsome boy is fabulous. He hitched a ride to his foster home today as an easy passenger and settled in nicely with the resident shepherds. Greeting his foster dad with the wiggliest body, Jakab loves gazing into your eyes, leaning his body into yours and enjoys lots of scratches and sweet talk. Jakab is potty trained and at ease in his crate. He loves being brushed, laying right at your feet. The puppy in him is already peeking by the slipper stealing and wondering what's on the counters but Jakab loves to please his people and we'll get the puppy sheninagans sorted out. It's only the first day and we're in love. The youngest resident shepherd, also a long coat, and Jakab have very similar play styles enjoying play bows, zoomies and chest bumps with glee. Jakab spent the last couple of weeks in the UCDVMTH Canine Enhancement Program, where fifteen shelter dogs are selected each year to be cared for by vet students. They attend classroom labs that provide educational experiences for the students throughout the instructional year. These noninvasive labs teach vet students about animal handling, physical examinations, radiology, ultrasound, orthopedic examinations, and behavior temperament assessments. Jakab was sad when separated from his care team outside of the labs and was so excited by the attention in the lab setting that his care team recognized that he belonged in a loving home rather than the confines of vet school kennels, and we stepped in to learn more about this adolescent to find him a perfect forever match.
