Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Dodger, the charming shepherd with a heart of gold! When Dodger first arrived at the shelter, he was a bit nervous, but with lots of patience, he's starting to come out of his shell. He thrives when surrounded by his favorite people and has formed strong bonds with those he trusts. Dodger's love for other dogs is evident in his playful demeanor and his eagerness to make new furry friends. With his sharp intellect and insatiable curiosity, Dodger is always ready for an adventure and eager to learn new tricks. If you're seeking a loyal and loving companion who's as smart as they come, Dodger is the perfect match for you!
