Crixus's Story

Crixus is an 8-year-old, 65 lb German Shepherd with a gentle soul and a strong heart. He&#39;s mellow and polite in the home, perfectly potty trained, and happy to lounge under the table or near his people as they go about their day. While he loves a good walk and sniffs everything with purpose, he&#39;s also content to kick back and watch the world go by. He&#39;s kid-friendly, dog-curious (but strong on leash), and loves to be outside. Crixus is<br/><br/>not a good match for homes with cats or small dogs<br/><br/>, but could potentially live with another large dog after slow introductions. He&#39;ll be neutered before adoption and is ready to start the next chapter of his life with a calm but active family.<br/><br/>Age:8 year old<br/><br/>Breed: German Shepherd<br/><br/>Weight: 65 lbs<br/><br/>Kid-friendly: Yes<br/><br/>Dogs:Does well with larger dogs with proper introduction, not great with small dogs<br/><br/>Cats:No<br/><br/>Crate trained: Yes<br/><br/>Potty trained: Yes<br/><br/>Health concerns: None at this time<br/><br/>Current medications &amp; estimated costs:None.

At times, adopters will be responsible for procedures not completed in rescue (dentals, bloodwork, etc.)<br/><br/>Your new dog will receive their rabies and distemper vaccine.<br/><br/>$50 discount for seniors (65+) and veterans. Adoption fees help pay for the dog&#39;s veterinary exam, vaccinations (rabies and distemper) HW test and spay/neuter if needed and additional health needs specific to each animal.<br/><br/>Grey Face Rescue does not adopt outside of Minnesota for now. We apologize for the inconvenience.<br/><br/>We do not adopt animals to families whose current pets are not up-to-date on vaccinations or not altered. Exceptions may be made for medical reasons as stated by a veterinarian and we will require proof of that recommendation.
