Meet Salem

Salem is a 5 year old male German Shepherd who is looking for his forever home. He is fully grown and weighs about 80 pounds. Salem was adopted for a short time and later returned for repeatedly escaping the 3.5 foot fencing surrounding the yard.

Prior to his first adoption he completed a full board and train session with Modern K9 Solutions. Salem has a great start on basic obedience and knows sit, down, and place. He has a soft mouth when taking treats. Salem will heel nicely on leash and has been worked on off lead training.

Salem seems to love all people. He gets very excited when visitors come to the house. Salem loves children. In his former home Salem lived with a 2 year old child and was attached to her and allowed her to brush him and sit with him on his bed. He was good with other children visitors as well.

Like most rescue dogs Salem requires a proper introduction when meeting a new dog. In his former home he lived with a female GSD and was friends with a golden retriever. Salem is reactive to small dogs and can’t go to a home with small dogs or cats. He loves being outside but would not do well in a yard that shares a fence with another dog.

Salem is looking for a home that has prior German Shepherd experience, where his people are home more than they are gone. He requires a yard with strong, 5-6 foot, fencing. As a graduate from Modern K9 Solutions adopters who live near Warrenton Missouri can do some brush up training to learn how best to work with their new dog.
