About Peter

Meet Peter! This charming 10-week-old German shepherd mix is a delightful companion looking for an active family. Found with his mother and siblings, Peter is expected to grow to around 40-50 lbs. His foster mom describes him as the quietest of the litter, always slightly clumsy yet incredibly loving — a real squishy teddy bear of a pup. Peter is adaptable and can fit into a home with or without other pets, kids, or cats. He’s well on his way with basic training, but he’ll need continued guidance from a family ready to embrace the responsibilities of puppyhood. While Peter has a gentle demeanor, he needs a household that understands the commitment of raising a young dog. By mid-July, he will be fully vetted, neutered, and up to date on all vaccinations and prevention. He’s also available for local meet-and-greets, or out-of-state adoption with approved applicants.
