Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). Please welcome stunning 18-month-old Butch to SHARE. We rescued Butch from the Miami Dade County shelter where he was surrendered when his owner was hospitalized. Shelter volunteers asked us to take this special guy. They said he's friendly, playful, loves to learn new things, knows "sit", is soft mouthed and seems dog friendly. Thank you to the amazing shelter volunteer who not only reached out but transported Butch to one of our wonderful volunteers who drove him to our vet. They said he was a perfect passenger who loves to give kisses. He's with our vet for evaluation. He is available for adoption or foster & located in West Palm Beach, FL.

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.
