Jupiter is a five-year-old, 52-pound German Shepherd mix, and he's packed with untapped potential. He tends to hang back at first, but once he gets to know you, he shifts into full-on companion mode—attentive, quick to connect, and eager to be part of things. He already knows how to sit and shake, and he’ll work for treats, especially cheese, which makes him genuinely easy to train. Jupiter’s board-and-train experience at Paddock's Paws paid off—he picked things up fast and impressed everyone. He’s got good house manners for a dog who’s never known his own family, and he’s a favorite among staff and volunteers. Despite all this, no one has ever called to ask about him. Jupiter gets along well with other dogs but has a prey drive—cats, bunnies, and probably small dogs are a bad idea. He’d thrive with an active family who sticks with his training and keeps him moving. If you want a smart, energetic, and reliably affectionate dog in Phoenix, Jupiter will match you stride for stride. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
