Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). Benny- the Definition of Perfectly Imperfect :) Meet Benny, a six year old neutered male black German Shepherd mix weighing about 74 pounds, with a heart as big as his adorable smile. Benny is a sweet, gentle boy who walks nicely on leash and takes treats softly. He has a calm, easygoing nature and loves soaking up attention, especially belly rubs. His look is completely unforgettable. With one ear up and one flopped, plus a cleft palate causing his bottom tooth to peek out, Benny always looks like he is giving you the cutest, goofy smile. He does have a playful side and can be a bit of a goof, and he is smart too, so a secure yard or supervised time outside is important since he can jump a fence. Benny is a loving, loyal companion with tons of personality and a smile you will never forget. To meet me, visit the Bradshaw Animal Shelter Tuesday-Sunday, Noon - 5:00 pm, Wednesdays, Noon - 6:00 pm. All adoptions are on a first-come, first-served basis. To help expedite the meet and greet process, please make note of my Animal ID number, and those of other dogs you might be interested in meeting. Be sure to bring your ID with you, too. We are located at 3839 Bradshaw Road, Sacramento. I look forward to getting to know you!

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.
