About Tangerine

Meet Tangerine! This nearly 5-year-old German Shepherd is named after the vibrant fruit, and just like his namesake, he has a bold and adventurous spirit. Tangerine is a working-driven dog who thrives when he has a job to do. While he takes a little time to warm up to male dogs, he absolutely loves people—once he gets to know you, his loyalty knows no bounds. Though he’s cautious at first due to his past, patience reveals the incredible dog he truly is. Tangerine enjoys being active and would love a home that keeps him engaged, whether it’s training, exploring, or his absolute favorite—splashing around in mud puddles! If you're looking for a loyal, hardworking companion with a heart of gold, Tangerine is your guy.

Ideal Home

Tangerine would love a home that keeps him engaged with training, exploring, or splashing in mud puddles. He is cautious with male dogs and may need some time to warm up to them.
