WESTON - ADOPTION PENDING - GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). Meet Weston: A handsome 11 month old, 54 pound shepherd mix who is ready to find his forever home. He has soulful eyes, shepherd smarts, and an always wagging tail. Weston is the perfect blend of playful energy and gentle affection - whether you are up for a hike or just want to cuddle on the couch, he’s your guy. Weston will become the most loyal companion you’ve ever had with a heart that is 100% full of love. Weston had a rough start in life, being picked up by a shelter as a stray. Those days are behind him now! He is thriving in his foster home where he has learned how good it feels to be safe, cared for, and loved. Due to Weston formerly being a stray, he may need time to adjust and build trust in his forever home, but once he does, he’s yours forever. Weston is apprehensive around strangers at first but quickly warms up and becomes very affectionate. Shortly after meeting someone new, he happily greets you with a smile. He enjoys long walks, squeaky toys, and showing off his goofy personality. Weston is eager to please, learns quickly, and would thrive in a home that continues his training with positive reinforcement. Weston has the classic German Shepherd brain – smart, alert, and the intense capacity to learn – and the gentle charm that makes him great with people. He loves to go on walks, receive belly rubs, as well as playtime in the backyard. Got toys? He will love you even more. Weston also loves car rides and going to Starbucks for a “pup cup”. Due to Weston's activity level he will require a 6 foot fence. Weston is house-trained, partially crate-trained, and already knows a few basic commands. Weston gets along extremely well with other dogs and enjoys playing with his foster siblings. Weston would do well in a home with or without other dogs. If you're looking for a loyal shadow, a smart companion, and a heart-melting friend, Weston is your guy. Come meet this handsome boy; he can’t wait to steal your heart.
