ADOPTED ON  09-17-16 – The only way to describe our new graduate is “sweetness defined”! This girl (melody) is a petite female German shepherd of about 55 pounds, with a long flowing black and red coat and she is around 1 1/2 years of age. Melody is great with all things human, be they small or large, great with all dogs, playing or relaxing, and she is a true pleasure just to be around.

SPAYED FULLY VETTED
GREAT WITH ALL PEOPLE GREAT WITH CHILDREN
GREAT WITH OTHER DOGS
LEASH, HOUSE AND BASIC COMMAND TRAINED

This little girl came to us very shy and frightened but to her credit she put that aside quickly and came charging playfully into her new life. I wish I could take credit for training melody but truth be told, I received a great deal more from her than she ever did from me. Obviously our girl blew right through our training and socialization programs, revealing a very high intellect, a very high people drive and a high desire to train. I could go on and on about melody but it boils down to this; “if you want to know why god and dog contain the same beautiful letters you have but watch her loving interaction with children”, a wonderful glow that only god can create.

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.
