Shepherd's Story

Adopt Shepherd!<br/><br/>Shepherd is a Rottweiler, Cane Corso, and Mastiff mix with an enormous heart and so much love to give. While he's still a puppy, his personality is surprisingly laid-back. He's the definition of a gentle giant in the making and is happiest spending time with his people. Full grown, we expect him to be approximately 100 pounds.<br/><br/>Shepherd is fully potty trained, kennel trained, walks nicely on a leash, and is respectful in the home. He isn't destructive and happily sleeps in his kennel every night. His exercise needs are refreshingly simple—a 30-minute walk in the morning is usually enough before he's ready to relax for the rest of the day. Although he enjoys playing, he would truly benefit from continued structured training to help him reach his full potential.<br/><br/>Shepherd is looking for a very specific home where he can feel safe and succeed. We are only considering homes without children. He would do well with a single person or a couple, but a busier household would likely be overwhelming for him, including those with frequent visitors. He is believed to do best as the only dog in the home, although he may be compatible with the right female dog. Because of his leash reactivity toward other dogs, he should not visit dog parks or live in a busy area. He does require a securely fenced yard. These adoption requirements are **non-negotiable**, and applications that do not meet them will not be considered.<br/><br/>On leash, Shepherd can be reactive toward other dogs, but he responds well to redirection and is easily corrected. With consistency, structure, and an experienced owner who understands large, protective breeds, he continues to make great progress. Shepherd's adopter must have experience with one of his breeds or related breeds.<br/><br/>Shepherd isn't looking for a busy lifestyle—he's looking for a calm, committed home that will help him continue his training, respect his boundaries, and appreciate him for the loyal, loving companion he is. In return, he'll offer unwavering devotion and a lifetime of love.
