My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Timber is more than just a handsome German Shepherd. He is energetic and has a zest for life. One of his favorite activities is playing ball. Unlike many, Timber is one of the few who will enthusiastically bring it back, ready for the next round! He's also learning to catch frisbee!

He DOES have a prey drive, so he requires a home without cats or chickens.

Timber recently spent time in a foster home with an elderly couple who adored him. He was the perfect houseguest: calm, quiet, and completely house-trained. However, Timber's strength made him a bit too much for his foster family to handle on walks, and he also has a bit of a fascination with chickens.

While he could use some leash training, Timber is a quick learner and would excel with positive reinforcement methods. He's looking for a loving home that can appreciate his wonderful personality and is willing to put in the effort to help him reach his full potential. Timber is well worth it-he's an excellent dog ready to bring joy to the right family. He even enjoys rides in the car, so travel buddy!

Timber could be your perfect match if you're a German Shepherd lover looking for a loyal and loving companion!
