About Declan
Meet Declan, a resilient German Shepherd who has truly come a long way. Rescued from a kill shelter on his last day, Declan's past is marked by hardship, including severe trauma that resulted in the loss of his left eye. Initially, he struggled with aggression due to poor training and negative experiences, but with patience and dedication from his caretakers at WARF, he's made remarkable progress. Now, Declan is ready to find a loving forever home, ideally with a single woman who can bond with him and appreciate his protective nature. Declan thrives in a secure indoor-outdoor setting where he can patrol and ensure everything is safe. He prefers not to share his space with other animals and does not get along with cats or children. His journey has been six years long, filled with challenges, and he's eager for a patient adopter willing to commit to multiple meet-and-greet visits to build trust.
