Backstory:
Remi was surrendered to a kill shelter in Kentucky with his mom who was pregnant with another litter of puppies. She was pulled by another rescue and delivered 11 puppies who all found homes, while Remi stayed at the shelter waiting to find his forever home. He would do best with someone who has some shepherd experience and is willing to teach this sweetheart some basic obedience and manners, as he is so smart and eager to please! He just wants to be your best friend.

Foster comments:
Remi is the most gorgeous brindle shepherd we have ever seen! He is such a loving & playful boy who's eager to learn. He knows 'sit' and 'come', and has being doing very well with 'wait' commands on his walks. He is working on his leash reactivity and is very responsive to training, but will require a strong handler as he is a big boy. He has never shown any food aggression with treats or food. Remi is a huge cuddle bug that just loves to be loved on. His favourite thing to do is play fetch and he loves all toys!
