Dutch is a handsome shepherd mix, around 3 years old and weighing 45 lbs, with a quiet, thoughtful presence. He may be a little timid when you first meet him, but give him a few days and you'll start to see his sweet, affectionate side shine through. Once he trusts you, Dutch becomes a loyal companion who loves gentle pets, soft snuggles, and will happily rest his head in your lap just to be close. He's known for giving the most gentle kisses and has a calm, steady demeanor that makes him a comforting presence. Dutch will need supervision while outdoors, as he has previously climbed a 9-foot chain link fence.
Ideal Home
If you're looking for a devoted, soft-hearted dog who will quietly become your best friend, Dutch might be the perfect match. A patient adopter who understands that building trust takes time will be rewarded with a truly special bond.
Ongoing Health
Dutch is currently on allergy medication and has a past injury to his right front leg, but he continues to do well with proper care. His spay/neuter surgery is scheduled, and he is up to date on all age-appropriate vaccines.
Training & Support
Dutch is house-trained and crate-trained. He will need supervision while outdoors due to a past tendency to climb fences.
