Rome

Hi again White Paws followers! It's your buddy Rome here. Boy the past few months have been... busy? I have been a lot of new places, met a lot of new faces, and let's just say I'm over it. I am ready to get back to the comfy life I have always known. If you know shepherds, you know we have traits and certain tendencies, which make us a breed that is not for everyone. On the flip side, you also know how loyal, smart, and protective we can be. I would love to join a family who understands me. I have been working hard on training with my foster, and it's obvious, I love to work, even if it's just for kibble! I arrived at my foster home with some anxiety, but with some routine and consistency, I have been improving every single day. The sooner I find my furever, the better—I don't want to settle into my foster and have to move again!! I could be an only dog, but if I have a fur sibling, they will need to accept me for me. If they are anxious, we probably won't mesh. I have shown a slight prey drive towards the small dog here. I have lived with kids before, I like them! But remember, I am a shepherd... I might try to herd them if they run! It's all in fun, but older kids are probably best.

Ideal Home

Ongoing Health

Rome is fixed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations.

Training & Support

Rome is potty trained and crate trained. He is a typical vocal shepherd and training will be very important for him. He arrived with some anxiety but has been improving with routine and consistency.
