About Graham

Meet Graham, a spirited young male German Shepherd mix who is back with us in Columbus, OH. This pup has grown a lot since we last saw him. While he has previously faced some tough times with other dogs, he’s now on the path to recovery. Graham is in a training program at Camp Fisher where he’s working on building confidence and learning basic manners, both of which he’s improving on remarkably. Despite his fears—like the dreaded ceiling fan and robot vacuum—he lights up for food and fetch, and he adores belly rubs. Graham's affectionate nature makes him a delight to be around, and he’s completely house trained. He’s made notable progress in re-establishing friendships with other dogs, often playing energetically once he feels comfortable. Slow introductions to new doggie friends are key, but he shows great potential. If you're patient and ready to help a lovable goofball discover joy again, Graham could be your perfect match.
