ADOPTED 02-11-12 – This extremely handsome, long haired, coal black, 3 year old, male, German shepherd dog carries the solid name of Ditka. This wonderful animal came to our rescue via a good samaritan that saved him after his master passed away and the family did not want him. Our rescue has been extremely blessed in the past, saving animals that turned into very special family members. In this case we have been blessed again with the presence of another very special animal that is intelligent, loyal, dedicated, loving, gentle, playful and protective. Ditka has handled his loss in a manner that truly defines his character, honoring his master’s death with mourning but moving forward as he knows his master wished. This guy wants nothing more than to be with his family, loving, lounging and protecting, a job he handles with extreme control and capability.

COAL BLACK  ♥  NEUTERED  ♥  FULLY VETTED  ♥  LEASH TRAINED  ♥  HOUSE TRAINED ♥ BASIC COMMANDS  ♥  GOOD WITH OTHER DOGS PEOPLE AND SMALL CHILDREN

Ditka has shown the ability to learn quickly, retain his training and apply that training in all aspects of his life. This depth has shown his ability to understand children, their presence and how to act around them; he actually thrives in their acknowledgement and touch. Leash training, command training and house training were of no challenge to him at all. Ditka gets along extremely well with other dogs, playing readily and enjoying the process. Should you be looking for a new family member that will truly enhance your life you should not let this guy get away?

PLEASE TAKE A MINUTE TO CHECK OUT THE SECTION BELOW

RDVG wants to provide you with as much information as we can because some of our mix breeds you might not be familiar with. The below section on “About the Breed” offers information on some of the Breed Characteristics, Children & Pets, Behavior and Personality, Temperament and more.

It is important to point out that in addition to the breed, there is an enormous variety in the way a dog acts and reacts to the world around him. In the end, your dog’s preferences and personality are as individual as you are–and if you can accept that– then you’re bound to enjoy each other.

Children & Pets

Animal Behavior Guidelines

Many children, especially very young ones, do not realize that pets are living animals and not toys. Failing to teach a child how to handle pets properly can result in suffering on the part of the pet and, in some cases, injury to the child. Taking introductions slowly will allow you to introduce family dogs and your children safely

Puppy Behavior, Growth & Development

Each stage of Puppy Growth and development is fascinating; by the time it reaches its first birthday a puppy is considered a mature, adult dog. Puppy Growth rate is fast compared to humans, just compare a puppy of 8 weeks to a baby of the same age.

One of the most common questions asked about a puppy’s growth and development rate refers to the eventual size of the puppy. How big will the puppy grow? How can you determine the adult size of a puppy? A young puppy is tiny and cute – everyone loves puppies! But will the puppy be suited to your environment? How much exercise will be required for a full grown dog? Will the puppy be a suitable pet for children? The breed of the puppy will determine the answers to these questions. A general response to the size and growth rate of a puppy and the adult size of a puppy is therefore not possible – it needs to be specific to the puppy’s breed.
