Bucky’s very sharp—he’ll sit when you ask and figures things out quickly. He really needs an experienced shepherd owner who understands his energy and intelligence, and who’ll keep him mentally engaged day to day. He plays rough outside and gets along best with dogs who match his energy level, but doesn’t do well with male dogs. He isn’t suitable for homes with cats, but he does get along with children. Bucky is not house trained yet, but with the right person who can set boundaries and redirect his youthful antics, he’ll make a loyal and outgoing companion. Ready to fall in love?
