ADOPTED 11-12-11 – Not long ago our rescue received a call from a shelter in north Alabama about a dog that they could not identify as to breed. When we looked in to the issue we were pleasantly presented with a German shepherd dog that is a sable and downright gorgeous. This big guy (Rex) is a tri-color red, black and tan that is about 3 years old and about 85 pounds. While working with Rex we have found him to be extremely bright, very loving, gentle and totally devoted to the people around him. Rex has recovered well in our care, putting on weight, coat has developed beautifully, skin is clear and a true love sponge in the making.

SABLE              NEUTERED             FULLY VETTED             GREAT WITH CHILDREN
GREAT WITH OTHER DOGS             LEASH TRAINED             HOUSE TRAINED

Rex does extremely well with other dogs both at play and in training, always seeking a way to get along. Children have proved to be his life’s desire, thriving in their presence and his desire to protect them. Training has been a breeze with Rex, picking up the leash and his basic commands almost immediately. Rex loves to ride in the car and is house trained. A true gentle giant that make a wonderful new family member.

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.
