Knight is a striking 3-year-old German Shepherd with a classic shepherd look and presence. He was left at a high-intake shelter by his former family after they decided to keep only their new puppy, even though Knight adored the other dog. Arriving confused and scared, Knight quickly blossomed with care—revealing himself as deeply loyal, intelligent, and sensitive. Now about 80 lbs, neutered, microchipped, house trained, and up-to-date on vaccines, Knight greets other dogs warmly and shows the best of the breed’s devotion once he settles in. He sometimes shows hesitance around some men at first, but earns trust with time and patience. Knight belongs with someone who knows German Shepherds, understands their attachment and need for structure, and is ready to give him the secure home he deserves. Knight would thrive in a stable environment where he’ll never be left behind again. He’s located in Van Nuys, CA. Knight, born under the steady sign of Taurus, is ready to find a family he can trust for life. Click apply to start the adoption process.
