Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). Hansel is on our Call to Action list due to severe levels of kennel stress and reactivity that have increased with the length of his shelter stay. When Hansel arrived at the shelter, Hansel was fearful, but quickly warmed up to shelter volunteers. He was easy to walk and successfully met lots of new people. Unfortunately, the shelter is an extremely stressful environment and we are seeing it affect Hansel for the worst. He has been biting at his kennel towards volunteers trying to take him out, and now barks, growls, and lunges whenever a person passes by his kennel. Hansel is in urgent need of a foster, adopter, or rescue group to help him decompress for the shelter environment, as he is becoming difficult to safely handle here. vcanimalservices Adopt or Foster Hansel â Call to Action at Ventura County ???

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.
