Dash German Shepherd Dog Mix Port Townsend, WA

Hi, my name is Dash! I am approximately 2 years old. I came all the way from a crowded shelter in Modesto, CA (where I'd landed as a stray) looking for my forever home!

I am a wiggly and sweet, outgoing, active boy. I love my walks on leash and playing with toys. I have been fine with other dogs here, but am very curious about cats and want to chase them (I need a feline-free home). I can be nervous in new situations at first, and likely did not have a lot of socialization as a pup. I'd do best as a homebody or with someone very dog-experienced who can work me through my discomfort with new things. Loud noises scare me, and I'm seeking a home with no children under 5.

I am up to dates on my rabies, DAPP and bordatella vaccines. I tested negative for heartworm (the vet recommends I stay on prescription heartworm preventative for the next 6 months, however, since I did come from a region that's known to have heartworm). I am neutered and micro-chipped too.

My adoption fee is $175 (+ $20 county dog license, if residing within Jefferson County). Staff takes applications for all the dogs here to find us homes that suit our individual needs. If you're interested in me, you can submit an application here (scroll to the bottom of the page): https://www.hsjcwa.org/adoptapet

Thank you!
