Scar OS
German Shepherd Dog · 2 Years 3 Months · Male · Cupertino, CA
Notes from German Shepherd Rescue of Northern California
Scar is a handsome, young, 90+ lb lap dog. He is well-behaved in the house, potty-trained, and can be left alone loose for a few hours (so far). He rides well in the car, barks only occasionally, and only chews on his toys.
He has knowledge of the commands: “come”, “sit’, ‘down”, “out”, “leash’, and knows his name.
He is enthusiastic and gentle with adults, even strangers. He hasn’t met many children yet.
He lives with a 6-year-old foster sister whom he lets push him around in play.
We do not know his behavior with cats, but he seems to have a very low prey drive.
His foster parents describe him as energetic, affectionate, outgoing, curious, and playful.
Scar is:
Energy Level 3-Your Basic Shepherd: Needs daily exercise and play time. Some walking/hiking/training, and/or fetch will round out their day and allow them to settle in the evening.
Temperament Level 3-Comfortable with most people, may be under-socialized, may have some prey drive, separation anxiety, and/or leash reactivity, and may not be suitable for small children. Takes well to training.
