Large (60 – 100 lbs) Learn MoreMeet Darwin! This gorgeous boy is about a 5-year old, 80-pound German Shepherd (and possibly Malinois) mix looking for his forever family.
Darwin is the sweetest, calmest boy who loves people and enjoys cuddles with them. He will be an excellent hiking or running partner and is always up for adventures.
Darwin is good on leash and is very smart. He knows how to sit, lay down, shake, stay and come when called for treats and is eager to learn more.
Darwin doesn’t seem to be reactive to other dogs but can be dog selective so proper and slow dog introductions are a must for this boy.
Darwin also discovered that he can jump the 6 foot fences if there is something exciting, like a kitty, on the other side. He enjoys having dog friends, but needs a home without smaller animals (and with taller fences.)
Darwin needs a home with an experienced handler. Positive renforcement training, structure and socialization should be a part of his new life and his new home should give him adequate opportunities for mental stimulation and lots of exercise.

Darwin would love a foster home while he awaits his forever one.
