Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). Meet Patience: a 5 month old, 40 pound puppy that's full of energy, curiosity and affection! This smart girl loves having someone to play with - whether it’s chasing toys, running around the yard or just being snuggled at night. She is crate trained and gets along well with other dogs, especially younger ones. She does have prey drive, so she would not do well in a home with cats or chickens. She is confirmed kid friendly with children older than three. Patience is learning basic commands and is treat motivated. She will need someone to keep teaching her commands as a puppy so she will grow into a wonderful house dog. Patience is mostly housebroken but still has an occasional accident. She is very active and will need a yard with an at least 6 foot high fence. Patience will need an active family that will continue to offer her structure and mental stimulation to ensure she reaches her full potential. Interested in adding Patience to your family? Contact your adoption coordinator. If you do not yet have an adoption coordinator, please complete an adoption application at .freedomgermanshepherdrescue . Patience is being fostered in Asheboro, 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.
