Zamboni German Shepherd Dog Bellingham, WA

Hi, my name is Zamboni! I'm a PURPLE pawprint, which means I will fit well into a home that meets some specific criteria. Here is what would work best for me in my new home:
-Personality: Intelligent, affectionate, active
-Can Live with Kids: Unknown history with kids so we are recommending kids aged 12 years and up who can handle a large dog who may knock them over.
-Can Live with Cats: No, Zamboni would do best in a cat-free home.
-Can Live with Dogs: Zamboni needs to work on socializing with other dogs before actually living with one, so not at this time.
-Can do Apartment Living: No thanks, he is a large guy with lots of energy and needs some room to roam!
-Potty Trained: Seems to be.
-Bite History: No
-Positive Reward Based Obedience Classes Required: Highly recommended but not required.
-Energy Level: High
-Needs Medical Procedure Before Going Home: Yes a neuter
-Additional Information: Zamboni is a lovely shepherd boy who is looking for a forever home. He arrived as a stray so his history is unknown. It seems as though he is well socialized with people but could use some work on his confidence around other dogs. Zamboni is very intelligent and enjoys working for treats. He would love to put his intelligence to use by polishing off some basic manners and learning new skills. He would do best in an active household where he doesn't have to be alone for too long. If you're looking for a handsome shepherd like Zamboni,
please fill out an application on our website (www.whatcomhumane.org/adopt) or in person at our facility. We recommend calling into the shelter after your application has been submitted so our front desk can give you next steps on our adoption process.
