About Berkley

Meet Berkley! This spirited three-year-old German Shepherd/Hound mix brings joy wherever he goes, thanks to his playful nature and devoted companionship. He is currently in Youngsville, NC, sporting a silky short coat of black and tan, and a heart as big as his oversized ears. Weighing in at about 70 pounds, Berkley is a tall, handsome boy who loves his toys. Whether it's a game of tug-of-war or chasing after a tennis ball, he is always ready for fun. He enjoys car rides, calm walks, and snuggling up after a day of play—be it an adventurous outing or a cozy couch day. Berkley is house-trained and crate-trained, and he responds well when called. While he's great with other dogs and gentle with children of all ages, he especially thrives in the company of older kids who appreciate his energetic playstyle. On leash, Berkley can be reactive around excitable dogs and busy environments, so he would benefit from continued leash training and positive reinforcement to build his confidence. A fenced yard would provide a safe space for him to play and exercise while honing his leash manners. Neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations, Berkley is ready to bring happiness to a loving home. Could he be the big-eared, big-hearted sidekick your family has been waiting for? What are you waiting for? Apply today!
