Hi there! My name is Yoshi, and I'm a 2-year-old, 57-lb Anatolian Shepherd/German Shepherd mix with a gentle heart and a fluffy coat to match. I am super sweet and affectionate, and I adore people. My absolute favorite things in the world are playing fetch and snuggling up for cuddle time. I'm a big fan of balls, squeaky or crinkly toys, yummy treats, and good bones – basically all the best dog things! I'm a happy, playful boy who loves life and enjoys being close to my humans. I've done wonderfully with female dogs. I was also raised alongside a male dog, but we recently started having some issues together, which are most likely related to littermate syndrome. I know several basic commands like sit, lay down, up, off, fetch, and hug (yes, hug!), and I'm crate trained, potty trained, and generally do well on leash – with the occasional curious bark or tug if something exciting catches my eye. I haven't spent much time around kids in my foster home, but I'd likely do well with older children who can go slow and let me warm up at my own pace. Overall, I'm a loving, loyal boy who's just looking for a calm, understanding home where I can relax, feel safe, and be his best fluffy self. If you're searching for a devoted companion who will adore you with his whole heart, I might just be your guy.
Ideal Home
I would do best in a home with only female dogs. If there is a male dog in the home, a meet-and-greet prior to adoption is required to ensure everyone is comfortable. I also prefer to enjoy my meals and bones in my own space, away from other dogs. I am not a fan of cats.
Ongoing Health
Car rides make me a bit anxious, but I am working on my confidence every day.
Training & Support
I know several basic commands like sit, lay down, up, off, fetch, and hug! I am crate trained and potty trained. I generally do well on leash, though I might offer a curious bark or tug if something exciting catches my eye.

Application Details:
- Applications start by contacting us through Wags at wags.com.
- We also have our fosters video chat with potential adopters prior to adoption so that the adopter gets to see the animals and ensure its a fit.
Transporation
Yoshi is currently located in Texas and can be adopted either locally or out of state. We coordinate everything with our ground transport teams to ensure they arrive to the adopter safely and we keep the adopter in the loop every step of the way. Transport costs are included in the adoption fees.
