Coastal German Shepherd Rescue

Major has been adopted! 05-10-2014

Male German Shepherd Dog about 6-9 years old. Good with kids. Gets along with other dogs.

Major can be slightly more serious than playful at first, and appears to prefer to be without some other K-9 companions. However, with the proper amount of time spent on an introduction anything is possible. Major weighs in at an impressive 77 pounds. We say impressive because he looks like a one hundred pounder. Major is thick of build, broad of chest and well suited for outdoor activities. Major walks well on a leash, but additional work will be required. It appears he knows his commands, but will only show you what he knows once you & he have bonded. He comes across as being slightly aloof, but that's just his way of handling the stress of kennel living. His aloofness is only a front however… he really is a “major” ham-bone! Major isn't a candidate for a home with cats. He will excel with a dominant person who is willing to invest some quality time with him!

The minimum adoption donation for adults is $375 and the adoption donation for puppies is $500. This amount only partially covers the cost of veterinary care, boarding fees, and other miscellaneous expenses involved in the temporary care and adoption of our dogs and is tax deductible when permitted by law. The adoption donation provides that all dogs will be spayed or neutered, receive current vaccinations, and are microchipped. If not, arrangements will be made on an individual basis ( i.e., puppies who will need to be altered by 6 mos old). Special consideration may be given to those willing to adopt older dogs or dogs with physical problems.
