Australian Shepherd and German Shepherd Dog Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Woody: A Gentle Soul Waiting to Bloom

Woody is the kind of dog who wears his heart on his sleeve—and his personality in his wag. This 2-year-old Shepherd Mix is a 55-pound bundle of potential just waiting for the right person to show him that the world isn’t such a scary place.

The Basics
Breed: Mixed Shepherd

Age: 2 Years Old

Weight: 55 lbs

The Signature Look: A one-of-a-kind, adorable stubby tail!

His Personality
Woody is a "sensitive soul" in the truest sense. While the loud noises and fast pace of the shelter environment have him feeling a bit overwhelmed and unsure, his true nature still shines through. He is profoundly sweet and loving; even when he’s scared, his first instinct is to look for a connection.

He desperately wants to trust and loves receiving pets and attention. Once he feels the touch of a kind hand, you can see him start to melt. He is looking for a partner who can help him build his confidence and show him what "the good life" outside of a kennel looks like.

The Ideal Home
Woody needs a patient, low-pressure environment where he can decompress at his own pace.

Confidence Building: He’ll need a family willing to work with him on basic socialization and outdoor adventures as he learns to navigate the world.

Love & Affection: If you have plenty of head scratches and a quiet spot on the couch to offer, Woody will be your most loyal companion.

Woody is a diamond in the rough. He may start off as a "work in progress," but the payoff of watching him finally feel safe enough to wag that cute stubby tail is going to be worth every second.
