MILES - SHEPHERD (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Shepherd (medium coat). Adoption Fee: 495.00. Miles is a 6 month old, 48 lb German Shepherd puppy with all the classic shepherd charm — big, goofy, sweet, and endlessly entertaining! Quick Facts: Name: Miles Breed: German Shepherd Age: 6 months old Weight: 48 lbs. House-Trained: Working on it! Crate-Trained: Yes Good with Dogs: Yes Good with Cats: No Good with Kids: Yes (older kids he can’t accidentally knock over) Energy Level: High (puppy energy) Fence Required: Yes Dog's Location: Kenly, NC About Miles’s Breed: Our best guess is that Miles is a German Shepherd mixed breed. German Shepherds are loyal, intelligent, and energetic working dogs who thrive when they have structure, purpose, and plenty of activity. They bond deeply with their families and love learning, training, and staying engaged both mentally and physically. Their ideal home is one that offers consistent exercise, clear guidance, and companionship. They do best with active owners who understand working breed behavior, can provide daily enrichment, and have a secure fenced yard where they can safely burn energy. With routine, leadership, and love, German Shepherds grow into incredibly devoted and capable companions. What to Love about Miles: Miles loves people, gives enthusiastic kisses, and has that joyful, clumsy puppy energy that keeps everyone smiling! Despite his size, he’s easygoing and surprisingly well mannered: he walks nicely on a leash, knows sit, takes treats gently, and is great in a crate. He’s still very much a blank slate, ready to learn, bond, and grow with the right family. Miles adores playing with the dogs in his foster home and eagerly wants to meet new dog friends on his walks. Cats, however, are a firm no for this boy. Because he’s large, goofy, and still learning his body, Miles would do best with older kids he can’t accidentally topple over. He’s working on his house training and making great progress, and he thrives with structure, activity, and mental stimulation — all typical needs for a young shepherd. A fenced yard is required to keep him safe, and experienced German Shepherd owners are preferred (although not required) to help guide him into adulthood. Miles would love a doggie sibling to play with as he has the best time playing with other dogs, though it isn’t required. With his sweet nature, playful spirit, and eagerness to learn, Miles is ready to become someone’s loyal, loving, unforgettable companion!
