My story

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

Meet adoptable Tommy! Fostered in the lower mainland, ready to meet you in person!



UPDATE FROM FOSTER MOM:



Tommy is a great pup, he has adjusted really well to life in Canada. He's well socialized, house trained and good with cats! He gravitates towards bigger dogs and get along wonderfully with them. He's also great with my 14 lb terrier who can be a bit defensive.



Tommy adores my cats and gently tries to play with them. He would be just fine in a home with kitties.



Tommy enjoys playtime and going out for walks. He gets excited and joyful when the leashes come out for walk time! He is still learning not to pull and he is quite strong so this is a work in progress. Everyone who stops to say hello is his new best friend! At home, he's super affectionate, loves to be patted and curl up with you on the couch. He will sit quietly and gaze adoringly at you when receiving pats.



He's a very smart dog, treat motivated, and learns quickly. He picked up house training in no time. 



The other day his floppy ear finally stood up and stayed there, so he's now a proper looking shepherd! His coat is very smooth and shiny, and he hardly sheds at all.



He's about 9-10 months old now and weighs 50 lbs. He won't grow much more, we expect he will top out at about 55-60 lbs.



BACKGROUND HISTORY:



Tommy and his siblings were tiny babies when they were rescued in Mexico. Their mom gave birth on the streets and was trying her best to survive while nourishing her pups. Fortunately, they were saved from these dire circumstances and taken into foster care in Guadalajara. While there, the puppies received all necessary vet care including vaccinations and spaying/neutering. You could almost feel their gratitude when they approached with wagging tails, bright eyes and big ol' puppy smiles. 



During their time in Mexico, all the pups devleoped social skills and confidence. They showed love for everyone and everything! Tommy, like his siblings, was joyful about his new life in a safe place, with people who loved and protected him.



Tommy is a stunner and will only grow more handsome with each passing day. He's very intelligent, quickly learning skills and commands.  He'll have no problem mastering obedience training and combined with his sweet, gentle personality, this boy will make any hooman SO happy!  His very best friend in Mexico was a three year old girl, so he will be perfect for a family with kids.
