Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). Ruger is about 2 years old and 83 pounds of German Shepherd excellence, but somewhere along the way life decided to throw a few mechanical issues into the mix. When he showed up at the vet, the report looked something like this: • Two Pelvic fractures •Front elbow basically doing its own thing BUT… the important thing is the rescue people got him all fixed up. The elbow had surgery (they installed some fancy hardware in there), and all is healed and ready for Rehab and strength exercises. His hip fractures are on non weight bearing areas so have healed with cage rest. Now here’s the important part about him… Despite the fact that his body has been through a bit of nonsense, his personality is top notch. ✔ Extremely sweet ✔ Easy to handle ✔ Friendly with people ✔ And yes… even met cats with zero issues Basically he is what you’d call a very good boy who just needs a little rehab and a lot of love. So if you’re looking for a loyal German Shepherd with a great heart and a slightly goofy walk, who is house trained and crate trained. Ruger might be your guy.

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.
