Here's what the humans have to say about me:
IDGSR Welcomes ZEUS into the safety of the rescue!!
THIS DOG IS FOSTERED IN TENNESSEE & AVAILABLE FOR TRANSPORT
**************
Hiya! My name is Zeus and I'm the most handsome 8-month old male black sable German Shepherd you'll ever meet! I'm located near Nashville TN and am available for transport.
My previous family didn't have the time or understanding to deal with me so they surrendered me to the rescue. It wasn't my fault, I promise!
Here are some fun facts about me & my ideal home!
1. I am a HUGE boy for my age and will probably be pretty large when I'm full grown. I need someone who is familiar with working line German Shepherds and can help me live my life to the fullest.
2. I'm friendly, playful, and have a very high energy level. I need a home with a large fenced in yard to run and play in. I need to get all my energy out, a tired pup is a good pup!
3. I play great with other large breed dogs. It would be best for me to be in a home with *no* small dogs or cats.
4. I would LOVE to have a job and receive ongoing training. Obedience, both basic & advanced, and any specialized training would be amazing for me! I'm ultra smart & will learn anything you can teach me!
5. If you train me, I'll prove I'm the smartest and bestest boy around. It will make your neighbor Bob jealous that you have the most well behaved pup on the block.
6. Do you like walking, running, hiking, exploring, or chasing waterfalls? I do too! We could go together and have all sorts of adventures.
7. I hope you are my perfect forever home. I am the most handsome & bestest boy, I just need some training, love, & lots of treats!
