Description
Bodacious Bubba and his pal, Suzie, were picked up as strays in the south. Although both dogs were friendly, when the pair arrived in an overcrowded shelter they were on borrowed time. Unfortunately, with numbers at critical levels in most places, many shelters are struggling to keep up with the number of animals needing placement. Hoping to ensure that as many animals as possible make it out alive, shelter staff are doing everything they can to transfer dogs to reputable groups. When Bubba and Suzie were not claimed by a family, they were both placed on the list to be euthanized. Knowing that these dogs deserved the chance to move forward, a plea went out to the GSD community for help. Although we were also sitting near capacity, we knew both dogs were out of options. Team MAGSR began working with other groups in the area to pull both dogs to safety at the last second.
Bubba is a stunning guy. Clearly an intelligent boy, Bubba is food motivated and is ready to start learning the ins and outs of becoming a good canine citizen. Friendly, adventurous, and active, Bubba, like his buddy, Suzie, has a healthy supply of shepherd energy. As a result, he is looking for a forever family that will exercise both his body and his mind on a daily basis. This will help Bubba develop the stability and confidence needed to become a healthy adult dog. In many ways a blank slate, Bubba does not yet know general leash manners or household expectations. However, as a motivated guy, we know he will pick up these skills quickly. Fortunately, our volunteers have already begun working with Bubba to develop some basic manners. Moving forward, training will be critical to Bubba's success. Not only will training help Bubba develop a healthy bond with his forever family, but it will also help him develop the skills needed to become a good canine citizen. Bubba is looking for an active family that will provide him with the structure, routine, and leadership that all GSDs crave. If this handsome boy sounds like the right match for your household, ask to meet Bubba today!
