German Shepherd

Portland OR

Description

SMALL rehoming fee to good home only. 18 months old. Still intact, but needs to be neutered. NOT for breeding. Has suddenly developed some aggressive/reactive tendencies the last two months. Microchipped and rabies vaccinated. Please email or text for more information. Would prefer he go to home with German Shepherd experience and/or other GSDs. VERY smart. Good with other dogs including small dogs. Wouldn’t recommend any children under 10, he’s impatient and uncomfortable around them. Unfortunately he had a bad experience with some rough toddlers hurting him, so he doesn’t have much trust with them. I’m sure it could be remedied with some work. He has grown up with children ages 10, 12 & 14 since he was 8 weeks old though. Hasn't been introduced to cats (and hasn’t hurt any) but seems curious the few times he has seen any. Can be a perfect dog, he nearly is. But he does need some work. He’s reactive in drive throughs and gas stations (didn’t used to have this issue). Doesn’t trust people at first anymore. He was well socialized since puppyhood, so I can only assume it’s high testosterone as the aggression culprit and resource guarding. Hasn’t bitten anyone, but definitely growls. Fine on walks and great on a leash. Loves car rides. Great in apartments! More pictures and videos upon request. Again, I’ll go into greater detail via text or email! Thank you!
