DESCRIPTION
Jay is one of 8 pups born to Breann. We think dad may have been a Border Collie or Aussie. Mama Breann is a beautiful Sheppard/Labrador type mix of probably 50-60 pounds who showed up on a Central Valley property and started delivering her puppies in the blistering heat. All the pups get daily gentle handling and they LOVE people. The early exposure to positive human touch will literally impact them for the rest of their lives. There are four boys and four girls in this litter.
Rough guess the pups will be 40-60 pounds at maturity for the pups. They arrived in our care at just one day old and will be available for adoption at 8 weeks. We are accepting applications now and the adoption team will be reaching out closer to adoption age.
The shepherd dog breed encompasses a versatile group known for their intelligence, loyalty, and strong work ethic. With a heritage deeply rooted in herding and protecting livestock, shepherds excel at various tasks ranging from obedience and agility competitions to search and rescue missions. Their protective nature makes them excellent family pets, offering unwavering devotion and a natural instinct to watch over and care for their loved ones. In addition to their remarkable abilities, shepherds are often characterized by their distinctive appearance, including a sturdy build, alert expression, and a signature double coat that provides insulation and protection in various climates.
