My story

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

Cory von Chemnitz is a stunning, 2-year-old, long-haired German Shepherd. When you meet him, you’ll immediately feel his presence. Cory is a big boy with some of the most luscious fur you’ve ever seen (and felt!). But don’t let his size fool you; he’s really just a goofball at heart. For example, sometimes he’ll nudge your hand with his nose just to let you know he’d like some pets. Other times, he’ll be so silly in playgroups, inviting other dogs to play and getting rowdy with them. That’s just Cory though. He has moderate energy levels, approaches new situations readily, and is very social with humans and other dogs alike. His leash manners are improving every day, and he’s excited to learn even more lessons from his future family. At the end of the day, Cory just wants a cat-free home with people who love him (we don't recommend children), and that’s all he cares about. So if that sounds like you, don’t wait to come make him yours!

Rescued from the Downey animal shelter.

Based on our experience, Westside's current thinking is to usually match first-time shepherd owners with a mix versus a purebred shepherd. Mixes are "softer" and somewhat more malleable. Exceptions can be made, however, for first-time adopters who show the confidence and leadership tendencies that purebreds will respect and respond to. Counselors have to use good judgment in assessing the attributes of the adopter, as well as of the dog. If you have doubts, get a second opinion from Robin or another experienced counselor.
