Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). Meet Pluto. He's a German Shepherd that is a loyal adventure companion, a fetch enthusiast, and a firm believer that small dogs are...suspicious. Not evil, just suspicious. Possibly undercover squirrels. Pluto will accompany you literally everywhere. Going to the kitchen? He's in. Taking out the trash? He's ready. Quick trip to the gas station? He's calling shotgun. If you move, he assumes it's a team activity. Pluto prefers his canine peers large, confident, and not shaped like animated squeaky toys. Tiny dogs tend to activate his internal `what is that and why is it vibrating?` alarm system. He's not interested in drama, he simply requests roommates who are his size. He bonds deeply and loves hard Thrives on structure and activity Will play fetch until your throwing arm files a complaint Checks in with you like a furry project manager He's happiest when he has a job (fetch counts) an active lifestyle, clear boundaries, a humane who appreciates a 70 pound devoted shadow.

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.
