Here's what the humans have to say about me:
HW(+), severe, fast kill in progress now
Max is a charming, adult, male Shepherd mix. We're told he's around 3 years old. Though he may not be a purebred German Shepherd, his heart is pure gold.
He's not a big dog -- he weighs just under 50 pounds.
Max would be a great choice for someone looking for their first dog, as he's an easy dog to live with. He loves to romp with other dogs, play, and explore.
He's been friendly with all the people he's met. He also gets along very well with other dogs, large and small. Assertive, high-energy dogs intimidate him, but he loves the company of other low-key dogs. We would like for him to live with another canine companion, as he draws so much happiness from having a dog buddy.
He appreciates people and dogs who return his quiet, gentle approach. We're told that he previously lived happily with kids too. However, we've noticed that he wants to chase cats, so we don't think he should live with kitties.
Max enjoys toys and has a playful side. He's affectionate and eager to please. He loves being inside the house with his people and appreciates attention and care. We would love for him to go to a home committed to positive-method obedience to build his self-confidence and his bond with his person. We think he would thrive with that approach and become deeply devoted to his person.
He enjoys car rides. He's already house trained. He is working on his crate training in his foster home, and he's making great progress.
ADOPTION FEE: $200
Upon adoption, all dogs are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, and microchipped. Max is preparing for heartworm treatment in September. Upon adoption, Max's heartworm treatment will be covered by the rescue, so long as the treatment is done by the rescue's veterinarian in Prairieville, LA.
If you are interested in meeting any dog listed as available for adoption, please fill out an adoption application: http://www.RedStickGermanShepherds.org. Sorry, we are not able to respond to requests for information by telephone. It is not possible to meet any dog without first completing an adoption application.
A completed adoption application, with vet and personal references, and a home check are required to apply to adopt. Applications are approved solely in the discretion of the RSGSR board of directors.
