Sidney Poitier - Super Star

German Shepherd Dog

Male, Young

Albany, NY

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

We rescued Sidney from a horrific shelter in Memphis, TN. When we got him, he was skin and bones and had some barrier aggression issues (who knows what horrors he suffered there) It didn't take long for Sidney to realize he was now safe and could start letting down his guard. Sidney Poitier has filled out and is truly a stunning dog. Sidney is about 2 years old, and is at his healthy weight of 80 lbs. Sidney is a very intelligent fellow, he learns quicky and is anxious to please. He will do well with a job and/or a lot of stimulation, long walks and hikes. He will do well with an experienced dog person. Sidney loves meeting new people. He has done well with large dogs he has met, however he is would not be good with small dogs or cats. Sidney does show barrier reactivity, however, when the barrier is removed (whether it is a crate, fence or car window) he show absolutely no issues. Because Sidney likes a lot of activity, he will need a securely fenced yard (must be a physical fence, not an electric or invisible system) He is neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped and on monthly treatment for flea/ticks and heartworm prevention Sidney is currently located in the Middle TN area but transport is included in the adoption fee for approved adopter If you are interested in Sidney Poitier, email cox_ann@bellsouth.net for an application

Her name is princess she is energetic has been around other dogs and cats she also has my 4 kids and grandson. When I got her I thought I would be in a better situation however I am not and have to pay a fee for her at my home. She is a freidly dog. I can not take care of her or give her the attention she needs. She goes outside if you take her, right now she goes on pad in bathroom I don't know if she would go in the house as she is mainly in bathroom, when she comes out it's not for long because we have no space. She was born last year in October.

Story

Hi, My name is Tippy. I’m a 4 yo boy who has a loving owner who is getting a little bit too old to take care of me. He is 92 years young. 🙂 I love to run around and chase all the little creatures that get my attention. I’m told it’s not my fault, but that I was bred for this. I’m very loving and I just need a home where I will be able to express my desire to roam but also get a chance to socialize and share my hugs and warmth with others.. If you need a hunting partner I am your boy, but I’m also open to being just part of the family and sharing your world. Please reach out if you feel that I would be a good addition to your home.
