Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). This young fluffy guy is a 1:100000000 pup. He's very friendly, standing up to give me a hug in the first few minutes of meeting me. So welcoming! Putting the leash on him was super easy, but he got nervous and a bit over whelmed walking past kennels with other barking dogs. In the play yard he explored and was curious but always stayed close, checked in with me often and happily accepted reassurance scratches. He enjoyedgetting brushed and showed concern when he heard voices from people he couldn't see. The elevator pitch for this fella is- if you're looking for a dog that looks big enough to cause strangers to give you space, but secretly is a big mush who just wants to cuddle and feel safe with his human-Finn is the exact dog for you. You should head into #burbankanimalshelter and adopt him! He's a very special guy who would love to find his forever human. 3/31/26 From his Day Hike: Finn was more confident today. He still needs a little coaxing to get in my car, but I bet he'll be jumping in there in no time. He is wonderful on the leash and matches the pace of his handler, which for me, today, was a casual stroll. He's not reactive to other dogs and simply acknowledges his compatriots with an all-knowing nod. No lunging, no pulling, no barking, no whining... it's a wonderful change of pace. Finn will make for a phenomenal companion for a single person, couple, and/or family... this wonderful man goes with the flow.

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.
