About King

Meet King!

King is a 2-year-old German Shepherd who is as smart as he is handsome, and he's looking for his forever home! This goofy, loyal boy is eager to please and loves showing off his repertoire of tricks, including sit, stay, lie down, give paw, and even roll over. King is a big baby at heart who is looking for a human to work, play, and bond with deeply. He's already a pro at potty training and crate training and walks beautifully on a leash.

Ideal Home

King would thrive with an experienced German Shepherd or working-breed owner who can provide him with the structure, exercise, mental stimulation, and love he deserves. Because King is a big, strong boy who doesn't always know his own size, a home without small children is recommended. He may do best as the only dog in the home or with an adopter experienced with slow, proper introductions.

Ongoing Health

No specific health conditions were noted in the description.

Training & Support

King is working through some resource guarding around food and high-value treats, so he will need a patient, experienced home committed to continuing his training and setting him up for success. While he can be reactive toward other dogs on leash, he has shown he can be dog-friendly with proper, slow introductions. Like many German Shepherds, he is very loyal and can be protective, but he responds well to direction and is learning when it is appropriate to protect and when it is not.
