ADOPTED 10-13-12 – Our boy DOC (a black, male, German shepherd dog, approximately 3 years old) came to us via the shelter system in Mississippi. He, as most of our wards, had a very severe past of neglect and starvation but as with the vast majority of these special creatures, he has overcome and moved forward. As a trainer I am always moved by the bottomless ability of these dogs to forgive and forget, I often wish I was as strong. Doc is a happy, loving, playful guy that wants nothing more out of life than to be your companion, friend and protector. This guy represents the breed very well with the basic characteristics of intelligence, loyalty, gentleness, friendliness and protective instinct. I have worked with many dogs in my life but few have been as easy going, happy and focused as this very special guy.

BLACK COAT***NEUTERED***FULLY VETTED***GREAT WITH PEOPLE***GREAT WITH OTHER DOGS***LEASH, HOUSE AND BASIC COMMAND TRAINED

As with all of our dogs doc was socialized and trained in accordance with our very demanding programs, he passed with ease. He is great with people of all ages and sizes, proving to be both gentle and tolerant with children, always enjoying their presence. Doc has been tested, trained and socialized with dog of all sizes, in small groups, large groups and individually. Doc is a great dog that will enhance a great home!

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.
