Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog. Wayne is a sweet, sensitive boy who can be a little nervous at first and feels safest in his kennel, but once he’s comfortable he’ll come sit with you, hang out by your side, and may even try to curl up in your lap. He enjoys calm companionship, does well with other dogs and kids, and while he does pull on leash, continued leash training will help him improve his manners. Wayne is bonded with Garth, and they bring each other comfort and confidence, so they would do best being adopted together into a loving home. ❤️ To adopt one of our animals, please visit our shelter, open Tuesday-Friday from Noon-5pm and Saturday from Noon-4pm. You may also submit an application online from our website at .HelpTheAnimalsINC/adopt.

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.
