Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). Meet Kavik! Kavik is a 3-year-old, 76 pound, German Shepherd whose name means “Wolverine” in Inuit—but this boy is all heart. He’s incredibly sweet, laid-back, and loves nothing more than cuddling with his entire body pressed up against you. If you’re looking for a true snuggle buddy, Kavik is your guy. Kavik was very thin when he first arrived in the rescue but is now a healthy weight. He would do best with a limited diet, as his stomach can be a bit sensitive. He loves toys—especially tennis balls—enjoys water, and walks beautifully on a leash. Kavik would do well having a yard with an at least 4 foot high fence or in a home committed to giving him plenty of walks and opportunities to run and stretch his legs. Kavik enjoys meeting dogs of all sizes and ages but hasn't met any cats. He does, however, like to chase squirrels. While he hasn't spent time with any small children, he has a very gentle nature but may be size unaware. Kavik is also housebroken and crate trained. Kavik is the kind of dog who fits right into your life—loyal, affectionate, and endlessly loving. He’s ready for a forever home where he can feel safe, adored, and included. If you are interested in making Kavik a member of your family, please contact your adoption coordinator. If you do not yet have an adoption coordinator, please complete an adoption application at .freedomgermanshepherdrescue. Kavik is being fostered in Charlotte, NC.

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.
