About Tangerine

Meet Tangerine! This nearly 5-year-old German Shepherd is as bold and adventurous as his namesake. Tangerine is a working-driven dog who truly shines when he has a job to do. He can be a little hesitant around new male dogs, but once he warms up to you, his loyalty is unwavering. Tangerine is cautiously optimistic due to his past experiences, but with patience, his incredible personality shines through. He loves to be active and would be happiest in a home that keeps him engaged, whether it's through training, exploring new places, or his absolute favorite pastime: playing in mud puddles! If you're searching for a dedicated and hardworking companion with a heart of gold, Tangerine is the dog for you.

Ideal Home

Tangerine would thrive in an active home that can keep him engaged with training and exploration. He needs a patient adopter who understands he can be cautious at first.

Ongoing Health

No specific health concerns were mentioned in the listing.

Training & Support

Tangerine can be a bit slow to warm up to male dogs and may need continued patience and positive reinforcement to build confidence in those interactions. He is a working-driven dog who enjoys having a purpose, so continuing his training and providing him with jobs will be beneficial.
