Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). Bolder is a handsome, medium energy boy who's ready for a fresh start. After arriving as a stray, we were able to contact his previous owner, who made the difficult decision to surrender him because they could no longer afford a dog. She had raised Bolder since he was a puppy and shared that he's done well with children in the past. Bolder walks nicely on a leash with very little pulling and enjoys taking his time to stop and sniff everything along the way. Once he's in the play yard, he's happy to trot around at his own pace, exploring all the interesting smells and taking in his surroundings. He's an independent guy who doesn't need constant attention, but he's always happy to pause for some love too. All you really need to win Bolder over is to give him some butt scratches - they're easily his favorite! Heâll turn to make sure you get the best spot, and will lean against you in happiness. He does know how to sit on command for a treat, and has done well meeting other dogs in shelter playgroups. He's a sweet, laid back dog with a quiet confidence who would love a family that appreciates his calm, easygoing nature.

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.
