George - German Shepherd Dog and Anatolian Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Fort Lupton, Colorado

Hi I'm George! My siblings Fred, Ginny, and I arrived in Colorado at 8 weeks old after being born in the shelter in New Mexico. Even with this rough start to life, we immediately loved people and other dogs! We are almost 12 weeks old and soon to visit the vet for something called a neuter- sounds fun right? I am more of a follower than my siblings and like to cuddle when I'm tuckered out for the day. I love to stay busy with toys, other dogs, and being outside. I'm starting some training with treats and learning new words like sit, outside, inside and food/hungry! Food time is my most excitable time of the day and right now I am eating 3 times a day to keep my weight up with my energy as I grow. I hope to be the tallest and maybe biggest of the 3 of us! I'm working on learning that nibbles are not kisses, I just get so excited! They say I'll be best suited in a house with a fence, probably with someone who has shepherd breed experience, and older or no kids. I plan on being very smart and need to be entertained with training and enrichment.

If you're interested in meeting George, please fill out an application at www.thegooddogrescue.org (If you already have an approved application, please email thegooddogrescueadoptions@gmail.com with your interest in him!)

His adoption fee is $400 and he will be available as soon as he is neutered, microchipped, and is up to date on vaccinations.
