Description
Dog Breed: German Shepherd Dog (medium coat). Meet Max! He's looking for a new home with a family who would enjoy and older dog who is loyal and obedient. Unfortunately, his current owner is having health issues, and they can no longer keep him. Max is house and crate trained and walks well on a leash. He enjoys going for walks and knows basic commands which he will happily perform for a treat. Max hasn't lived with other dogs but doesn't seem to mind them when he sees them on walks or at the vet. He has been in boarding, and the staff describes him as super cuddly. As German Shepherd often are - Max can sometimes be protective (barks at a stranger or someone knocking on the front door) but he listens well and is calm when he knows his owners are ok. He's neutered, current on vaccines, heartworm negative, and microchipped. His adoption fee is $200 and you can apply to adopt him here: Adoption Application - Legacy Humane Society We do not have a facility to house the dogs in our program.

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.
