Hi, my name is Ripley! I'm a long haired german shepherd and I am 5 to 7 years old. I'm sweet and mellow and love hanging out and chilling with my owner. I'm really mellow but I get really excited when I know I'm going for a car ride. I don't have the best hips in the world but I get around great and will even chase a cat or two although I probably will never catch one. I like to help out if my foster parent is working in the garage or in the yard and I'll stay close by and will always come back when I'm called if I do wander off a ways. I love treats and playing with tennis balls too. I'm great put in public and I love other dogs and kids. If you adopt me I will make you very happy.
NOTE: In our experience many German Shepherd Dogs are very good with kids. In our bios, we may provide information on our experience with a particular dog and children. However AGSDR discourages ALL unsupervised animal/child interaction. Children should be supervised at all times when they interact with ANY animal, whether it is a horse, dog, cat, bunny, lizard, or any other species. Even loving household pets can have a grumpy day, or otherwise get tired of a child's attention, so proper supervision is essential for the well being of any child and any pet.
The entire biography of this dog is based solely upon our volunteers' experiences with the dog. The dog's age and weight are estimates, and statements about the health, temperament, training, and ability to get along with other animals, children, cats and other dogs, are estimated solely based on our volunteer's experiences with this dog. Your experiences with this dog may be quite different than those of our volunteers.
