Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). Teddy Bear is an approximately 3-year-old, 81 pound sweetheart looking for a very special forever home. He loves playing ball, going for walks, exploring, and riding in the car. He’s wonderful in the house, has free rein 24/7, and absolutely loves having a canine companion to play with and help him feel safe. He will not do well as an only dog. While Teddy Bear enjoys adventures and playtime, he’s equally happy relaxing beside you once he feels comfortable. When he trusts you, he is incredibly loving and gentle—he’ll even place his paws in your lap for kisses. Teddy Bear’s past was clearly not kind to him, especially involving men, so he is fearful and cautious of them. Because of this, he needs a patient, understanding female-only home, a confident canine companion, a secure 6’ fenced yard and someone willing to give him the time and kindness he deserves. This sweet boy may take a little time to trust, but once he does, the bond is incredibly special. If you are able to give Teddy Bear the safe, loving home he’s been waiting for, please contact your adoption coordinator. If you do not yet have an adoption coordinator, please complete an adoption application at .freedomgermanshepherdrescue . Teddy Bear is being fostered outside of Charlotte, NC.

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.
