Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog. This dog is a courtesy listing and not one of our dogs. Please contact the email listed in this post. For more information about Draco, please contact: Mandi at 513-259-5305 or Kevin at 865-368-8905 Meet Draco: With a very heavy heart, we are looking to rehome our 5 y/o male GS. He is such a good boy but is not adapting well in a new home with children. He has extensive behavioral training and is e-collar trained. He is a curious, outgoing, silly, and loveable boy. He loves his stuffed animals and makes it his mission to hunt down and eliminate their squeakers. Fetch of any sort; frisbees, balls, sticks - he would win a gold medal. He is overly curious when he spots a rabbit or squirrel. He is fully house trained but talks back when created or secluded in any way. Draco seems to do well with other animals. He does not like motorcycles, or seeing other animals on the television. He also does not like his paws touched or sudden movements. He loves to be outdoors and to go on walks or hikes, but the car ride to and from can cause a bit of anxiety, via excessive whining. He needs a home without kids where he will continue to be well spoiled and stimulated. With someone who is knowledgeable and well equipped to handle the GS breed. He needs a yard to run in and to be given tasks. I have no doubt he will thrive in the right environment.

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.
