My story

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

Atlas is a German Shepherd/Hound mix. He one of six left behind from a large litter. He was owner surrendered to BHS as the owner could not find homes for all the puppies. He was born June 18, 2024. He has a beautiful dark black coat. He looks more Shepherd than Hound. He has been with his siblings since birth and is now ready to have a family of his own. When out in the open yard he is very attentive to his foster mom. He comes when called and does not wander far. He is smart and is eager to learn. He is a puppy and does need to get plenty of exercise. He would do well with children that understand getting puppy jumps and nibbles. He gets along with other dogs. He has not been around cats but yet he is young enough to be trained to enjoy a cat's company. If you are looking to add a pup growing to large size who would become your best friend, Atlas is the one for you.

Atlas has been dewormed, microchipped, is on preventive for fleas/ticks, and has received the Distemper-Parvo combination vaccine.

Until Atlas is neutered, he is not available for adoption outside of the counties contiguous to Bedford County.
