Richard

Meet Richard! This handsome, approximately 2.5-year-old German Shepherd, weighing around 75 pounds, is a bundle of intelligence and energy. His playful personality shines through, especially with his signature one-ear-up, one-ear-down look, which perfectly captures his goofy charm. Richard is a smart boy who is motivated by treats and loves to learn. He thrives when he has plenty of mental and physical stimulation, enjoying toys, playing fetch, and structured water fun like splashing in a kiddie pool or having a bucket bath.

Ideal Home

Richard will do best in an experienced, adult-only home that has a large, secure, fenced yard. Consistent handling, clear expectations, and ongoing training will be key to his success. He has a strong aversion to hoses and should not be around when one is turned on, so this will need careful management in his daily routine.

Ongoing Health

Richard is up-to-date on his vaccines and has been neutered.

Training & Support

Richard is house-trained and ready to settle into his new home! True to his breed, he has a history of mouthiness and leash grabbing, particularly when he's over-stimulated. He will benefit greatly from continued guidance and appropriate outlets for his energy to help him succeed.
