Meet Dirk, a 7-month-old bundle of joy, weighing over 70 pounds of pure charm! 🐶 This delightful blend of Anatolian and German Shepherd is ready to steal hearts and bring laughter into your life. Dirk is a little shy at first, but once he warms up, his adventurous spirit truly shines! 🌟 He’s the perfect balance of goofy and gentle, a social butterfly who’s not at all pushy like many shepherds. Instead, Dirk is laid-back, making him a dream for any active family looking for a loving companion. Dirk is seeking a confident, social human who can provide him with the companionship he craves—preferably with another playful pup around to help him learn the ropes! 🐕‍🦺 This sweet boy excels in the company of his furry friends. As a true beta dog, he smoothly goes with the flow, making him an excellent match for homes with two or more dogs already in place. Dirk thrives on social interaction and would love nothing more than to cuddle with a friendly canine and a caring human. ❤️ Despite his size, Dirk is a remarkably wise young pup. He’s eager to please and learns quickly, especially when treats are involved. 🍖 Having been raised around children and both cats and dogs of various sizes, he embodies the spirit of a true socialite and just wants to be included in the family fun! There's no doubt that he's been having a blast in his foster home, exploring and making new friends along the way. At first, Dirk might be a bit timid meeting new pals—but give him a moment, and you’ll see that playful, outgoing side peek out! 🐾 His curiosity is infectious, and he’s motivated by treats, making training a breeze. Dirk loves the reassurance of human companionship and often seeks his loved ones for cuddles and affection. This handsome pup is house and crate-trained, walks beautifully on a leash, and is making impressive strides in basic obedience and off-leash recall. With Dirk by your side, you'll gain a loyal buddy who is not only easygoing but also thrives in the warmth of his pack. With the right love and guidance, Dirk is destined to be a truly wonderful addition to any home! All adoptions include essential medical care such as spaying/neutering, vaccinations, and microchip registration, just to name a few! 🙌 Please remember, adopting Dirk means you must apply through the Buddy App, and your commitment is required with a minimum of 2 meet-and-greets to ensure a perfect match.
