About Jupiter

Meet Jupiter! This big, eager Shepherd mix has a lot of love (and bounce) to go around. Jupiter wants your attention and will gladly work for it—toss him a treat after a trick, and you’ll make his day. Give him a toy, and expect it to squeak. He’s happiest rolling through the yard and would love a playmate to share his energy. Jupiter gets along well with other dogs but charges into play with a lot of enthusiasm. He’ll need any canine siblings to be large, playful, and just as rough-and-tumble. Cats aren’t a fit for him. He’s remarkably smart, picks up training quickly, and enjoys walks on a harness. At about a year old and already sitting at full size (50–60 lbs), he’s as solid as he is goofy. Jupiter recently graduated from the New Leash on Life training program. You can ask for all the details at your visit. Jupiter is currently in Fletcher, NC, and waiting to meet someone ready for all his energy. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
