My personality

My story

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

Demi is a handsome four year old Red Sable male GSD who was found as a stray in the Stockton shelter. He was picked up by Animal Control in June and was placed on the euthanasia list by August. The Stockton shelter contacted Golden State and thankfully Cynthia was available and she eagerly offered to foster this handsome guy.

Demi is brand new to Golden State so we don't know much about him. However, he does appear to be extremely smart (Cynthia calls him the "K9 Einstein") and enjoys the company of dogs, both large and small. He also enjoys the company of people, especially women.

Demi will require an owner who is committed and active, one who enjoys hiking, jogging, or even high level obedience training. Demi might even enjoy doing some Rally-O. "Rally Obedience (sometimes called "Rally-O") is a new take on traditional obedience competitions. Rally-O encourages human/canine verbal communication, eye contact, and moving in harmony. Teamwork is the goal. In both Rally-O and traditional Obedience, dogs perform heeling, sit, stay, and recall." https://positively.com/.../dogs-sports-activities-rally...

He is currently learning housemanners and crate training.

More information, pictures, and videos will be made available as soon as get to know him better.

More about this rescue

Golden State German Shepherd Rescue
is a 501(c)(3) non-profit based in the Central Valley of Northern California

Our mission is to find loving homes for German Shepherd Dogs in need of a second chance and to educate the public about this highly intelligent and versatile breed.

Most of the dogs in our program come from Central Valley animal shelters where they have run out of time. We place them into foster homes to assess their needs and gives us time to fully vet them. And then we find perfect fit adopters throughout Northern California..
