About Ren

Ren is a 7-year-old German Shepherd who recently found himself in the shelter after being surrendered with his brother, Ronan, due to their family's move. Ren has a calmer, more submissive temperament compared to Ronan's dominance. As they require separate homes, Ren would thrive as the only pet, especially considering his reactivity around other dogs. He is house trained and has been altered, making him ready to find his new home. If you're interested in meeting him or have questions, please contact Trumbull Animal Shelter at 203-452-5088 for more information. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
