ADOPTED 07-14-12 – Jackson, a beautiful, male, 90 pound, 1-2 year old, German shepherd dog arrived at our GSD rescue via saving from a high kill animal shelter in Louisiana. This wonderful young man is graceful, gentle, loving and extremely bright, having passed all of our socialization and training criteria with minimal effort. Jackson very much defines the qualities of the breed being athletic, smart, obedient, resourceful, and loyal, committed and possessing a strong but highly controlled guardian instinct. I have trained and socialized many GSD’s over the years and I can say with no reservations that Jackson is as good as I have seen. This boy is still quite young and will have the occasional “puppy” explosions but in his case they are true comedy, fun for all observing the antics.

Jackson is lease trained, house trained and comprehends all basic commands. To my knowledge this boy has never met a stranger (human or canine), his is absolutely taken with all things children and he will play with any dog willing to indulge him. Should your family be looking for a new family member you really should move quickly and apply for Jackson, this guy will not last long!

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.
