ADOPT ME!

ADOPTED 10-13-13 –Our new ward (Shelby) is a wonderful blessing of love and hope, both of which she delivered in mass to a precious elderly soul that can no longer insure her proper care. Though Shelby wouldhave stayed with the lady no matter what, this fabulous lady realized that Shelby would be having a better life with a new family that would treasure her as much as she. Our girl is a stocky, 50 pound, 3-4 year old mix of German shepherd, Rottweiler, lab and personality, a beautiful combination of all things good. All who meet miss Shelby are totally enchanted by her demeanor, loving look, broad smile and impish play, if one does not leave their first encounter with Shelby completely taken then that person must surely be dead.

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

Shelby plays extremely well with other dogs but will not be dominated, she has shown a loving and capable nature when involved with children and has never met an adult that she does not like (or that she cannot manipulate).this girl is very well command trained, great on a leash and is absolutely house trained, bottom line, if you meet Shelby all you will want to do is spoil her

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.

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.
