Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). Hi, Iâm Thor! Iâm a high-energy, social pup looking for an active home that can keep up with me. I get excited easily, so Iâm still learning my mannersâthings like polite greetings, leash skills, and not trying to zoom out the door. I can be vocal and jumpy when I want attention. I also havenât had many proper dog meet-and-greets yet, so slow introductions are best. I came in as a stray, which means Iâm starting fresh with house training and routines. Iâm eager, smart, and ready to learn. If youâre active, patient, and up for an adventure buddy, Iâd love to meet you.

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.
