DARCUS

Adopt Darcus, a beautiful working-line German Shepherd, 612 years old (DOB 1/1/20), and she is everything a working-line shepherd should be — athletic, strong, intelligent, energetic, and driven.<br/><br/>She loves to play ball, enjoys having daily activity, and bonds quickly with her person. She’s not an over-the-top high-energy dog, but she definitely enjoys having a job and something to do.<br/><br/>Darcus is a retired breeding female who has spent most of her life in a kennel environment. Because of that, she will need some time, patience, and understanding as she adjusts to life in a home. She would do best in a home where she is the only pet. She can be shy with men at first and may freeze when she’s unsure, but she has never been aggressive. With time, she is sweet, engaging, and eager to connect with her person.<br/><br/>She is also obsessed with car rides and absolutely loves her crate! <br/><br/>Darcus is fully vetted, healthy, has had her hips and elbows evaluated through OFA, and has a clear Embark genetic health panel.<br/><br/>She’s looking for someone who understands German Shepherds and will give her the time to decompress, acclimate, and discover how wonderful life outside a kennel can be. We think she has the potential to be an amazing companion for the right person. <br/><br/>If Darcus sounds like your girl, please reach out for more information!<br/><br/>See more photos of Darcus in the comments. <br/><br/>Message us for more information or email Christine at christine@therescueexpress.org.<br/><br/>Darcus is currently in NJ but transportation to the right home is available. Darcus’s trainer (worked with her after rescue from breeder) is in Florida and she could also be transported back to Florida for the right home. <br/><br/>#germanshepherd #rescuedog
