Schwarz
Age: 8 Years Old Sex: Male Size: Large Leadership Experience: Strong Good With Dogs: Yes Good With Cats: No Good With Children: Yes, 12 and up Schwarz (which is German for "black") is an 8-year-old solid black male German Shepherd. He grew up with a 9-year old black & tan female Shepherd, Teufel. Unfortunately, their owner passed away and they were surrender by a family member to a shelter. The family was only able to supply limited information, but we've found that both German Shepherds are very friendly, great with people, and both do well around other dogs.
We originally wanted to keep this bonded pair together for adoption, but after months of being in our care with our volunteers, we have reevaluated their situation. While we initially thought it would be best to keep them together it has become apparent that they could be adopted out separately and in fact it may actually be better for them both. Schwarz has more energy than Teufel and at times Schwarz seems to want to dominate and will jump on Teufel. Teufel does not like when he does this and at times they can get cranky with each other. Both dogs can live with another dog -- a meet and greet will be required -- but no cats! Schwarz is a very youthful 8 year old with no trace of silver on his muzzle. He's a bit aloof and very curious, walks great on a leash, and is more interested in looking at his surroundings than playing with toys. If you think Schwarz would be a great match for you, please fill out an application today!
