Rex is a 3 year old male German Shepherd with the cutest floppy ears and tail that curls when he's happy. 
​
Rex was adopted last year, but shortly after, his new family discovered he was reactive at the front door. They worked with a trainer and made some progress, but he continued to struggle with one family member, so they made the difficult decision to return him.

Rex is now looking for a calm, experienced home—ideally with someone familiar with German Shepherds or dogs who need a little extra support. He’ll need to be the only pet in the home (no cats, please!), and he’d do best in a quiet environment without children and with limited visitors. Rex has been working with our volunteers and has been meeting new people with flying colors -- we've found that new people that give him a treat when meeting him are friends in his book! 

He’s a beautiful, traditional-colored GSD who bonds closely with his person. Rex walks nicely on a leash, loves his toys, and is up to date on vaccines and neutered. With the right person—someone patient and willing to continue working with a trainer—Rex has the potential to truly thrive.

If you think you could be the one for him, we’d love to hear from you.
