Champ's Story

<p><strong><em><span style="color: #ff0000; font-size: x-large;">Urgent--needs new home <br />by May 31!</span></em></strong>&nbsp;</p><br/><p><strong><span style="color: #993300; font-size: large;">"Champ"</span><span style="color: #993300; font-size: medium;"> is a regal, nearly 7-yo (in June) neutered male GSD who is loving and protective. Champ is friendly with strangers who come to visit, but is protective when on leash. Champ is great with kids, and has watched over his present owner's grandson since he was an infant. Champ is reactive towards strange dogs, having not been socialized with many other dogs. However, he lived for a few years w/ a female GSD who he got along great with. Champ has never been around cats, so per my policy, I will only consider a home w/out cats for him. Champ weighs about 80 lbs.</span></strong></p><br/><p><strong><span style="color: #993300; font-size: medium;">Champ is very good on leash, and is a good jogging partner. He loves to play fetch and to play in the snow. He has good recall off-leash. Champ is fine left alone in the house for a couple of hours, but his owner crates him when she is gone for longer than two hours because Champ becomes anxious and will pace back and forth. He presently lives in an apartment without a yard, but would probably be fine left outside in a house w/ a yard or inside with a dog door providing access to a yard.</span></strong></p><br/><p><strong><span style="color: #993300; font-size: medium;">Champ's owner raised him from the time he was 10 wks old. Both she and her son are very attached to Champ, but they are now having to move into an apartment that does not allow large dogs. The lease on their current apartment expires on May 31, so they must find a home for Champ by then or they will be forced to bring Champ to a shelter.</span></strong></p><br/><p><strong><span style="color: #993300; font-size: medium;">GSRSV has evaluated Champ and is placing him as a "Program Dog." This means that GSRSV is seeking a new home for Champ through its adoption program while his owner continues to care for him.</span></strong><span style="color: #993300; font-size: medium;"><strong> Champ's adoption fee is $175.</strong></span><strong><span style="color: #993300; font-size: medium;"> </span></strong></p>
