About Pilot

Pilot is a handsome 2-year-old Shepherd mix, weighing in at about 80 pounds of love and personality. This big guy may look tough, but he’s an affectionate goofball with a knack for making everyone smile. Whether he's tossing toys in the air or greeting his favorite humans with happy wiggles, he brings joy to those around him. Fully house-trained, Pilot will signal when he needs to go outside by whining or heading to the door. He sleeps soundly through the night and adapts well when left alone in his own space. While crates aren't a good fit due to his anxiety, he is respectful and non-destructive given a comfortable area. A smart boy at heart, Pilot enjoys daily walks, playing fetch, and snuggling with his people. His moderate energy level means he thrives with regular exercise and would love a securely fenced yard to explore. Currently, he lives with two large-breed dogs and can be selective with new canine friends, so introductions should be approached with care. Though he coexists peacefully with cats, he requires some time to adjust and respects their boundaries. Pilot comes from a background of multiple home transitions, making him deeply bond with his people. He seeks a stable, committed family where he can feel truly at home. Prospective adopters should note that Pilot is protective of his home and yard, having a bite history that involved warning bites that did not break skin. Because of this, he needs experienced adopters who understand structure and proper introductions. If you're looking for a devoted companion and have the commitment needed to help Pilot thrive, he may just be the perfect match for you. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let's get started.
