Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption in Tampa, Florida

PLEASE READ THE ANIMAL'S PROFILE AND ALL NOTES BELOW BEFORE APPLYING!

Hi... I'm Winston

I'm a 3-month-old Shepherd mix with a sweet heart, a smart mind, and so much love to give. I might be a little shy at first, but once I feel safe, I absolutely light up around my people

I truly thrive on attention and connection-I love being close, getting pets, and just hanging out by your side. Whether it's playtime or cuddle time, I'm happiest when I'm with you. I'm eager to please and already learning commands like sit, down, and stay!

I'm still a growing puppy, so I'm working on things like potty training and getting comfortable in my kennel. I just need a little patience and consistency, and I'll keep getting better every day.

My ideal home:
A calm, loving home (small family preferred)
A fenced yard where I can safely play and explore
Someone who has time to spend with me and help me grow
A patient, understanding person (experience with higher-energy pups is a bonus!)
A home where I can be the main focus and build confidence

From my foster
"Winston is such a sweet, gentle boy. He loves snuggles and just wants to be close to his people. With a little time and patience, he's going to blossom into an incredibly loyal companion."

I may take a little time to come out of my shell, but I promise... I'm worth it. If you're looking for a loving, devoted best friend, I'm right here waiting
