Simon is a striking adult German Shepherd living in Conway, SC, who’s past the chaos of puppyhood and ready for his big break. At about five years old, Simon has already been neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested heartworm negative—no guesswork there. He’s housebroken, smart, and even knows to potty on command. Simon connects deeply with his people and loves being part of what’s going on; he tags along while his foster dad bikes and has a loyal, energetic spirit. Meeting new folks, Simon likes a bit of an introduction—he wants to know you’re a good egg before showing his affectionate side, but once he does, he opens up into a dedicated companion. While Simon doesn’t generally get along with most other dogs, he’s not a troublemaker on walks; he often shows avoidance or fear rather than aggression. That said, he’s got a soft spot for a Golden Retriever puppy who’s grown up as his buddy, so it’s not a hard rule. Simon’s ideal home will have prior German Shepherd experience and be prepared to take the lead with a loyal, clever partner. He’s waited long enough, and he deserves someone who gets him.
