Hatchling is a 5 month old black and tan boy. He came from a local shelter so not much is known about his background.

So far Hatchling seems to share his toys nicely but prefers to wrestle around instead of interacting with dog toys. He loves to run, chase, and wrestle around in the yard with the other dog but prefers to do it while his human also stays outside with them.

Hatchling currently lives with another young GSD and they love to play together all day long. He has also met many other large dogs and as long as he gets a chance to be introduced to them, he quickly warms up and wants to engage in play.

Hatchling is currently learning to walk on leash and has done well so far. He is learning to go straight outside from the crate and to follow the command to go potty. While he is not quite housebroken, with regular trips outside he seems to be making good progress.

Hatchling is also learning other commands and house manners. So far he knows sit and has good recall when you tell him to come. Hatchling sleeps in a dog crate in his foster home's bedroom at night. As long as his human is there to keep him company he typically does well to settle into the crate and go to sleep.

More to come as we get to know this boy better and he continues to grow and learn.

Cats and small critters unknown.

Additional Adoption Information

For more information and to see when this dog will be attending an Adoption Day, please see our Dogs page on our main website. (https://www.gcgsr.org/adopt_info.html) We operate within a reasonable driving distance from the Greater Sacramento area, the Central Valley down to Merced, and Lake Tahoe. A reasonable driving distance is determined by where one of our volunteers is willing to drive within our areas of service. That means we don't adopt out of our area, to Southern California, or out of state.

Puppy Requirements

We have special Requirements for Adopting a Puppy and a separate Puppy Questionnaire that must be completed on puppies. Please see our Requirements for Adopting a Puppy (https://www.gcgsr.org/puppies.html) email us at info@gcgsr.org for more information.
