Description
Dog Breed: Husky / German Shepherd Dog / Mixed (medium coat). Simon is a big beautiful 58lb goof who loves attention and just wants to hang out by your side. Simon was found with his brothers Alvin and Theodore on the side of a road as puppies. The 3 brothers were in a high volume shelter and put on the euthanasia list at 4-6 months old due to capacity of care, fortunately we had a foster step up for all 3. His brother Theodore has been adopted but Alvin is still available! After being picked up by Animal Control it was discovered that Simon had been hit by a car & his back left leg was broken. Since he was a large, young dog, we wanted to try to keep the leg instead of amputating it. So, after a few vet and specialist visits, he had the surgery needed to help stabilize his leg, and moves very well.. but won't be running any marathons, or doing any cross training. He also needs to have his weight controlled so as to not exacerbate problems with his hip. He can do a small amount of stairs, but does tire easily right now. He is still recovering and in the healing process. Simon has been in foster since he was a puppy and while his foster mom absolutely loves him.. We would LOVE Simon to find his forever person that will give him the love and individual attention he deserves. Located in Dickson, TN LastChancePetRescueInc.rescuegroups/forms/form?formid=7215

Breed overview
Overview:
The Gerberian Shepsky is a hybrid of the German Shepherd Dog and Siberian Husky, emerging in North America as a modern companion with working-dog roots. Typically medium to large, they feature an athletic build, erect ears, and a dense double coat, often with striking blue or heterochromatic eyes. Their temperament blends loyalty, intelligence, and independence, making them affectionate yet occasionally headstrong. With very high energy, they thrive on daily exercise and structured training, suiting active families more than apartment living without ample outdoor time. Early socialization supports good manners with children and other pets. Notable health considerations include potential hip dysplasia and eye issues; regular vet care, weight management, and coat grooming help maintain well-being. Their typical lifespan ranges around 10–13 years, rewarding committed owners with a loyal, adventurous companion.
