About George

George is a neutered male Rottweiler/German Shepherd mix whose adoption fee is fully sponsored. After his previous family could no longer care for him, he arrived at All 4 Paws and settled in right away. George is a snuggler at heart, happiest on the couch or enjoying long, leisurely walks in the park. He pays close attention to his people and really wants to be part of their day-to-day life. Although he's a senior, he still has plenty of love and loyalty to give, and he's looking for someone who can be home with him often. House trained, excellent on leash, and an easy companion in the car, George just needs a special diet for his sensitive stomach—otherwise he is as low-maintenance as they come. Anyone ready to let George spend his golden years with them will have a devoted friend. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
