Duke - German Shepherd Dog Dog for Adoption in Eagle, Idaho

Duke is a young energetic German Shepherd.

Duke loves to go jogging, hiking and playing fetch. He especially loves to play with squeaky balls and can drive you batty with how much he likes to make it squeak. He also enjoys going in the river and would be a great camping dog.

Duke is a very intelligent dog and loves to train. He is food motivated and loves to please his human so training is a joy. Although he already has a great recall, also the sit, stay, wait and down command he will need an owner that will practice this with him daily. Duke needs mental stimulation to stop him becoming bored. If he gets overly bored he will find something to do, and it may not please his owner. Duke also has the ability to open any door, so the doors that lead outside should have the ability to be locked.

Duke is friendly to everyone that he meets and greets strangers politely. At the end of the day Duke loves to snuggle with his owner.

Duke is dog friendly but he might be a bit too much for a senior dog. He doesn't care for small, yappy dogs on his walks. Duke doesn't like cats. He is good with children but we are recommending a home with older children because he can get amped up when small children start screaming and running around.

Duke would not be a good candidate for an apartment, townhome or patio home. He needs a large fenced yard or acreage to run around on.

Duke is looking for an active person or family to share his life with. A German Shepherd savvy owner. Someone committed to continued training to make him the best dog that he can be.

Duke is 1 1/2 years old and weighs 75lbs. He is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.
