About Flacko

Meet Flacko! He's an 8-month-old, 40lb German Shepherd mix with a heart full of love and energy. Flacko is a certified good boy who adores people and other dogs. He's even trying to make friends with the foster cat, though his enthusiasm might be a bit much for some kitties. Flacko is a quick learner and his biggest desire is to please his forever person. He's a blast to play with, even with his doggy friends of all sizes, and is excellent at understanding their social cues. He even aced his daycare playgroup! Flacko also enjoys snuggling with his smaller puppy pals. He's been wonderful with his foster's 10-year-old nephew and would likely enjoy having human siblings to play with. While Flacko is learning his puppy manners, like not jumping and pulling on the leash, he'll need supervision around younger children. After a fun play session, Flacko loves to cuddle and show off his adorable belly! He's a big fan of pool time and can entertain himself with his favorite toys. This smart pup is already house and crate trained and will thrive with an experienced adopter who can guide him as he navigates the world. Flacko is ready to capture your heart, and we can't wait to see him blossom in a loving home.

Ideal Home

Flacko would thrive in a home with an experienced adopter who can help him gain confidence. He's great with kids and other dogs, but might be a bit too enthusiastic for some cats. He'll need continued supervision around younger children as he learns his manners.
