Tyson German Shepherd Dog Fulton, CA

Hi, I'm Tyson. I'm a super handsome 8-year-old boy weighing in at about 90 lbs (yeah, my recent somewhat sedentary life style gave me about 5-10 extra lbs but I can already feel that meling away). You see, somehow I lost my last home and ended up in a orchard all by myself out in the middle of nowhere. I was lucky though, as some kind ladies found me and took me in (I was so thirsty I couldn't get up to meet them). They gave me all the love and care I needed to bounce back and now I'm healthy and happy and ready to find my new home.

I'm super friendly with everyone I meet and absolutely love traveling around with my friends. I'm not scared of going in stores, bikes, strollers, skateboards or anything like that. I'm a pretty easy going guy. I get along with other easy going dogs but the little ones are tougher for me as I have a little bit of a prey drive. No cats for me, too tempting. I have also been known to chase horses....yeah, I know, not really my best feature. I don't want to hurt them, it's just fun!

I love to ride in the car because it means new smellls and I love smelling the world!!! If only you humans could smell what we dogs smell.. Luckily my friends let me do 'sniff walks' and I just have a blast. I might pull a little on the leash, but if you need it, I do well with my head halter or front clip harness. I'm pretty laid back when it comes to being handled, and I don't mind a good brushing, but the feet are ticklish so I can only handle my nail trims about 1 foot at a time. Don't worry, I don't bite or anything like that, I just get wiggly and a little mouthy (gentle) when the tickling is too much. I was a very good boy at the vet of course - I know my manners.

I think I'm a swimmer as lakes, rivers and fountains call to me. I've yet to try out the local water holes but I think I'd really enjoy that. I like getting out but I also like chilling with my friends and wouldn't mind hanging out with you at your favorite coffee shop or mountain top. I like to chase the ball but I'm not too keen on all the back and forth so bringing it back just to go get it again isn't really my thing. Spending time with my peeps is what I crave (and sniff walks!). I have some basics like sit and down and I take treats very gently so don't worry about giving me lots of treats ;-)

I'm just a handsome, happy guy who's ready for whatever adventure comes next. If you want to show me the world then just chill out and watch the sunset, I'm your guy. I'll be waiting to meet you in Santa Rosa.
