AbeAbe Head

Abe is a tall & lanky black and tan, 70 lb boy between 12-18 months old who could stand to gain about 10 lbs. A stray from a Sacramento area shelter, nothing is known of his background.

So far, Abe doesn't appear to have had any training and we assume he may not have spent much time inside. He does counter surf if he smells something he thinks deserves checking out. He is food motivated and will go into a crate after a tasty treat. He needed a bath just out of the shelter, and was taken to a self serve bath. He willing went up the steps to the counter next to the tub and was easy to get into the tub from there. He clearly wasn't enjoying the bath, but did not show any negative behavior toward it either.

Abe is being fostered with a 6 YO female GSD and the two already learned that a game of chase and playing together is a lot of fun. Abe gets into a car easily and rides nicely once in. If he's uncertain of something, he flattens to the ground.

This boy is sweet and affectionate and clearly wants to please his person. With proper training and continued socialization, Abe will prove that he is an awesome German Shepherd true to his breed.

More to be posted as we know Abe better.

This is a Level 2 Dog!
