Story
Yogi deserves a parent that can give him the love and time. He loves being involved with you and the family. Even if he’s just laying around. He stands like a soldier when he keeps you company outside. He a handsome one so he gets attention anywhere he goes and he loves it but is humble and well behaved. He's so funny and has a playful personality. I’m 53 years old and not very mobile since I fell in April this year. He’s likely better to be with someone active and that can give him attention. I named him Yogi cause he's got yogi the bear personality... a little goofy, big and cuddly.

Story
Forest was abandoned with 2 other shepherds. At first he wouldn’t come into the house and now he doesn’t want to leave. He is estimated to be around 3 or 4 years old. He’s very dignified, loves to be petted. He is great around other dogs. He does have an issue with going on a leash which we are working on. He seems to have had a traumatic past but now he is learning that life is good. Please get in touch if you are interested to know more about this beautiful boy. He is fully vaccinated and has a neuter appointment coming up on 08/13 so would not be officially adopted until he is neutered.
