Story

This is Chester, 3-year old purebred German Shepherd male. He is neutered and up to date with all shots. Highly trainable with zero health related issues; his hips were x-rayed at a very young age and showed no sign of dysplasia. Chester is quirky and weird. He is often sensitive and shy but has no problems being out in public/social settings with a handler that he trusts and respects. He does not like everyone and he often feels triggered around new people and new settings. On the other side of his introvert character is an intelligent, athletic, and resolutely persistent dog. He enjoys just about everything from playing fetch to exploring hiking trails with the people he loves. Chester needs an experienced handler and/or handlers who can provide upward of 3 hours everyday to care for him and stimulate him mentally/physically. This is a dog for someone who is capable of providing and enforcing rules, routines, and structure consistently on a daily basis.

Story

Zuri - 1 Years old. 75Lbs. German Shepherd Zuri came to me on October 21st from Knox Indiana. I was able to live trap her after she had been hanging out at a homeowners house since around July. The homeowner was able to shut her into an outdoor run but eventually let her go after she couldn't find a shelter or rescue to take her. Everyone was full. While in the outdoor dog run, Zuri became extremely depressed and shut down and so she was given her freedom back until we came along. While in my care Zuri took about 2 weeks to warm up to me and then another 1,5 weeks after that to warm up to the dogs. She is meeting other dogs and people at a much faster pace now. Still shy, I hope to see her confidently meet new friends in the months coming as she becomes more comfortable with her surrounding environment and builds trust with people. Now fully integrated with two dogs in her foster home she is a playful and loving dog. Zuri has lots to learn and I am in no hurry to place her but wanted to share her story with everyone in case there is a special adopter just waiting to take her home. I am looking for someone who is committed to her needs and continuing classes to help build her confidence. Zuri is still learning to live inside a home. At first she was very anxious and paced and whined a lot. Nowadays, she enjoys snuggling on the couch, chewing on a bone and playing with her toys. Zuri is fully housebroken here but we go out often so I have not given her the opportunity to have an accident here. Zuri does not like to be crated and is currently working through separation anxiety. She will need a strong crate to keep her contained and safe while her owners are away from the home. Zuri is enrolled in classes and is seeing a trainer for help and tips to work through separation anxiety and hopefully help her overcome it soon. She is loyal and loving, sweet and silly. Zuri will need a secure fenced yard. Preferably 6ft. Although she has never tried to jump the 4ft side of my fence I totally think she can and will if given the opportunity or left alone. Medical: Zuri has been fully vetted including spayed, microchipped, vaccinated and has her bordatella. She was diagnosed with Lyme Disease and we are almost finished with her 30 days of antibitoics. While Lyme disease is not curable, she will need to be on prevention monthly to keep her safe and help her lyme exposure numbers to go down. Her adoption fee is $200 and you can find an application on our website. www.trackingintheshadows.com ##2213085##
