Pierogi German Shepherd Dog Mix Bellingham, WA

Hi, my name is Pierogi! Here is what would work best for me in my new home:

-Personality: Active, playful, goofy, intelligent, adventure buddy!
-Can Live with Kids: Yes, sturdy dog-savvy kids ages 12+
-Can Live with Cats: Unknown history, but would likely chase cats. May do okay with a young confident cat, but would not be a good match with any shy or senior cats who prefer being left alone.
-Can Live with Dogs: Yes, could potentially live with a young playful dog after an initial introduction here at the shelter. I would not be a good match for selective or senior dogs who prefer being left alone.
-Can do Apartment Living: No, I would do best in a home with a fenced yard
-Potty Trained: It appears so
-Bite History: No
-Positive Reward Based Obedience Classes Required: Yes, a basic obedience course
-Energy Level: HIGH!!!
-Needs Medical Procedure Before Going Home: Yes, a neuter/MC

Additional Information: Pierogi is an active boy looking for an active person/family who will take him on lots of adventures! He's only 11 months old and still very much a puppy - he's in need of some consistent training to help him become a well-rounded adult dog. Pierogi came in as a stray so we unfortunately don't have much information regarding his past, but it seems to us he may not have gotten the attention he needed in his previous home. He can be a little jumpy/mouthy when he's overly excited and will need someone who can handle these behaviors and work with him to correct them. Pierogi absolutely loves people and is eager to please, so we're hopeful he'll respond well to training.

If you'd like to meet this big ball of fluff, the first step is filling out an adoption application. Our staff will then review applications to ensure it's a good match before reaching out to set up an introduction.
