Dakota's Story

Meet Dakota – The Rebel With Paws<br/><br/>Breed: German Shepherd Mix<br/>Age: 4 Years Old<br/>Personality: Wild child with a streak of stubborn charm<br/>Training: Trainer visit scheduled – manners coming soon!<br/><br/>Dakota is not for the faint of heart. He’s a four-year-old German Shepherd mix with a punk-rock soul and a whole lot of attitude. Think “bad to the bone” but with a tail wag and just enough goofy energy to make you laugh right before he tests your patience again.<br/><br/>This boy is smart, strong-willed, and wildly independent. He’s not a bad dog – far from it – but Dakota definitely needs structure, a firm and confident handler, and someone who understands how to bring out the best in a headstrong pup. He’s currently scheduled for a visit with our trainer to get started on the manners he skipped in puppy school.<br/><br/>Dakota thrives when he knows the rules (and that you mean them). With the right leadership, this diamond-in-the-ruff could shine into a loyal, obedient, and incredibly fun companion. If you're experienced, active, and ready to channel his wild energy into greatness, Dakota just might be your next adventure buddy.<br/><br/>Not yet tested with other animals<br/>Best for an adult home or one with older teens<br/>Training support available post-adoption<br/><br/>Ready to turn a rebel into a rockstar? Dakota's waiting to meet you.
