Jonas

Handsome, protective and a great snuggler... what more could a girl ask for? <br/><br/>Don't let first impressions fool you... While I <br/>do view all new people with suspicion, I warm up quickly - especially with the ladies! Once you are "mine", you are my person forever. And I LOVE my people. Can I be attached to you at all times? That would really be perfect! Need an 80lb lap dog? I'm your guy! And don't worry about any people you are unsure of when you're with me. Trust me, nobody is going to take a chance on getting past my BARK! I'd need a yard to run and play in. No apartments please.<br/><br/>General Socialization Notes:<br/>At only a little over a year old, I am still all puppy! I know how to "sit" and I take treats very gently. I walk pretty good on a leash, once I get over my initial excitement at getting to GO! I love to cuddle, but really don't understand just how big I am. I still get zoomies and race around the yard for reasons only I understand. I love a good dig spot where I can stick my nose in the dirt. And I am a counter surfer of Olympic status!<br/> <br/>Does Jonas like other animals? <br/>I LOVE other dogs! Especially the ones who will play with me! My favorite "toy" is my foster sister... I chase her all around the yard and try to grab her tail... she snaps at me, but it is all in good fun. Really! I try to get the grumpy old man to play, but he doesn't seem interested... and my foster brother yells at me sometimes. At first I took it with good grace, but lately I have noticed that I am bigger than he is. That makes me boss, right? <br/><br/>Does Jonas like children?<br/>NO. Kids threw rocks and stuff at me when I was on the street. They were mean to me and I don't like them at all now. <br/><br/>Favorite Toys:<br/>My foster sister! I think I might like balls, but my brother always takes them first. And tug is kind of fun too! <br/><br/>Ideal Forever Home:<br/> I would be a perfect companion and guardian for a lady/s, but someone active who can understand my need for exercise. I do warm up to men - I love my foster dad! - but it takes a little longer. I get bored easily and go exploring things to chew if I am alone too much, so if you work from home, that would be ideal. I do do okay with just my foster sister and brothers for entertainment and a yard to play in and protect from the mail man and Amazon deliveries... We make sure that they don't stick around any longer than necessary. Mostly, I need someone who knows that a Shepherd dog NEEDS to be with his family. It isn't negotiable. I need to be a part of your life and for you to be a part of mine. I'm not a dog who would be content to spend all day alone - at least not without inventing my own "jobs" to do, like interior demolition. You have been warned. I'd also need a yard to run and play in. No apartments please.
