Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). Maracas was found stray alongside his brother, Tambourine. Both dogs arrived thin and clearly lacking early socialization, but Maracas has shown himself to be the more confident of the pair. He is a gentle, affectionate dog with a sweet temperament and an easygoing presence. Maracas walks nicely on leash and has consistently remained calm and non-reactive around other dogs while out and about. He has also demonstrated friendly social behavior, happily engaging with a neighboring dog in our outdoor kennels. Maracas is a kind, steady companion who would love the chance to continue building confidence and enjoying life in a stable, loving home.

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.
