ADOPT ME ONLINE: https://ophrescue.org/dogs/13780
Hey y'all! I'm Powell, a 1 yr-old German Shepherd mix, weighing in at 35 pounds (a perfect size I might add--not too big, and not too small!).
Here are a few observations from my foster home:
--great with people and kids (super loyal and enjoys company!)
--likes other dogs
--crate trained--goes all night without a peep and is good for several hours in the morning and/or afternoon
--housetrained
--doesn't shed
--rarely barks!
My name sounds like "Pal," and is a perfect name for me because that's what I am--I want to be everyone's best friend (that includes kids, too!). I have yet to meet a stranger and find there's nothing better than a nice snuggle and snooze on the couch while you watch your favorite show. I also enjoy playing with other dogs--I'm super friendly and wouldn't think of barking. I already know how to sit, lay down, go in my kennel easily with a treat, and sleep quietly through the night. I don't love being in my crate during the day when I know you're home, but I will settle down if it's quiet. I'm working on walking nicely on a leash, but really enjoy a nice sniff walk or run around the yard to top off the evening. I am such a fun guy to be around (See me in action
in the yard,
with my chewy, and
after a bath)! Do you wanna be my pal?! If so, apply here so we can meet!

This dog tested positive for heartworm disease before arriving to the rescue. The disease was treated while in foster care. Heartworm disease is transmitted to a dog through a bite from an infected mosquito. With monthly preventatives, the disease is completely preventable.
