Link's Story

If you're looking for a loyal companion who will always have your back, Link is your guy.<br/><br/>This 7-year-old German Shepherd is everything you love about the breed! Smart, devoted, and deeply connected to his people. He's the kind of dog who forms a strong bond and sticks by your side through it all. Despite his classic shepherd instincts, Link has a wonderfully laid-back nature and truly enjoys simply being with his humans.<br/><br/>Link is both potty trained and crate trained, and he settles nicely into home life. Like many shepherds, he takes his job of "keeping watch" seriously and will let out a protective bark when someone enters the home! Just his way of making sure his family is safe.<br/><br/>He does have some prey drive, so a home without cats or small animals would be the best fit. While he has done well with a baby, his natural herding instincts can show up with quick-moving toddlers, so a home with older children would suit him best.<br/><br/>Link is the kind of dog who will love you with his whole heart! Steady, loyal, and true. And once you're his person, you'll never walk alone again.
