Update: All is well in Shadows world. He has a foster home with room to roam. Thank you all
Hello Facebook friends. I desperately need the help of someone who can foster a German Shephard for about 6 months. I have a client who's living situation is changing on the 8th and cannot accommodate her dog Shadow. This dog is super important to me but my living situation is not suitable for him.
Negative comments welcome because they'll get this post seen by more people, so fire away.
Here is what she has wrote up about him.
Shadow is a 4-year-old neutered German Shepherd/Husky mix who is intelligent, loyal, and deeply bonded to his person. He knows his basic commands, is calm indoors, enjoys laying near his human, and respects boundaries (no furniture or beds). Shadow is affectionate with adults and thrives with routine and structure. He has attended doggy daycare and can be friendly with select dogs when introductions are managed appropriately.
Shadow would do best in an experienced, adult or teen-only home that understands large breeds and can provide clear boundaries. He requires supervision around children, is selective with dogs (no male huskies), and is not a dog-park candidate. He can be food- and toy-possessive and may mark indoors if unsupervised, but does well with management and consistency. Shadow can become anxious during vet visits and is recommended to wear a muzzle for exams for safety. He is seeking a calm, stable home with someone who will advocate for him and appreciate the loyal companion he is.
