ADOPT ME!

ADOPTED 04-14-12 – Samantha is an absolutely beautiful, female, sable, 12 month old, 80 pound, German shepherd dog. Our rescue received this girl from a family that could no longer care for her. Though somewhat depressed Samantha has shown a real ability to adapt, opening up to the other dogs at our facility, playing with the volunteers and responding well to our training and socialization program. This young lady is extremely smart, very strong willed, responds well to a confident and controlling hand and is a joy to be around if she respects you. As can be inferred from my previous statement, Samantha was spoiled, coddled, allowed to run the show and overall just be a brat, all behaviors that we refuse to allow any further. Samantha is in the process of being resocialized, which will allow her to be more balanced and therefore happier. To date she is responding well and I believe she will be a happy, loving and playful puppy in the hands of a competent and capable new owner. From my perspective, Samantha, has responded extremely well to me, seeming to be much happier with a confident, in control handler, something that takes much of the stress from the relationship.

TRICOLOR LONG HAIRSPAYEDFULLY VETTEDLEASH, HOUSE AND BASIC COMMAND TRAINEDGOOD WITH ADULTS, CHILDREN AND OTHER DOGS

Samantha is accomplished on the leash, house manners and basic commands, task which she accomplished with very little effort. She plays well with the other dogs and is quite respectful of the needs of the pack. Samantha possesses a very strong protective instinct that is very much under control with normal supervision. This girl telegraphs her feeling and intentions quite visibly, allowing an alert and attentive handler to be ahead of and in control of her at all times. Samantha will make a very special new family member, loving, caring, protective and loyal forever.

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.

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

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.
