Neutered Male 1.5 Years Old 103 Pounds $175 Rex is a 1 1/2-year-old German Shepherd mix weighing in at an impressive 103 pounds. While he may look like a big, confident dog, Rex is actually a sensitive young guy who can be nervous in new situations and around unfamiliar people. Once he gets to know you, though, his sweet personality begins to shine. Rex walks nicely on a leash and is housebroken, but he has had very little formal training and is still learning the basics. He's looking for a patient adopter who is willing to invest time in training, building his confidence, and helping him become the best dog he can be. Rex also struggles with separation anxiety, so he will do best with a family that can help him learn that being alone isn't so scary. Because of his size and sensitivity, Rex would do best with older children who can respect his boundaries. He does not enjoy having his paws touched or being picked up and appreciates people who listen to what he's comfortable with. He loves durable toys and sturdy chew bones that can stand up to a big dog's enthusiasm. Rex can do well with other dogs, but due to his size, confidence level, and high prey drive, he is not a good fit for homes with cats, small dogs, or dominant canine companions. Rex is searching for a committed family that will provide patience, structure, and understanding. In return, this gentle giant will reward them with loyalty, companionship, and plenty of love.
