Description
Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / German Shepherd Dog / Mixed (medium coat). Zeus (A141018) is a 1-year-and-1-month-old Lab x GSD mix who weighed 58.6 pounds on intake! 01/30/26 This rambunctious pup is Zeus! Zeus was surrendered to the shelter because his owner was moving out of state and they were needing to rehome him. While in their care he was stated to be kennel trained and housebroken. He also knows his basic commands, but would highly benefit from attending a basic obedience class with a certified trainer. Zeus does like to jump up on people and lacks basic leash manners. However, with a patient owner and some consistent training we can master anything he sets his mind to! Zeus was known to get into the trash and to be a chewer if left unsupervised. Providing him with appropriate outlets is important. Zeus was said to do well with people of all ages including babies and children. Please keep in mind how high energy he is if you have smaller kiddos in your home. Zeus was also said to do well with other dogs and even the cat in their home. Please ensure you are making slow, safe, and controlled introductions with all new animals. If you are interested in meeting Zeus, please let us know!

Breed overview
Overview:
The Sheprador, a popular crossbreed resulting from the union of a German Shepherd Dog and a Labrador Retriever, embodies many desirable traits from both parent breeds. Originating from designer breed efforts to combine the intelligence of the German Shepherd with the Labrador's friendly disposition, these dogs typically boast a medium to large build with a dense, weather-resistant coat that can range in color. Physically, they often exhibit the Shepherd’s strong bone structure and the Lab’s kind eyes. Temperamentally, Shepradors are generally intelligent, loyal, and trainable, making them excellent companions for active families. They thrive on human interaction and do best in homes with a yard, as their energy levels make apartment living challenging without significant daily exercise. While generally healthy, potential health considerations include hip and elbow dysplasia, common to both parent breeds, and eye conditions. Early socialization and consistent training are key to fostering a well-adjusted Sheprador.
