Description
Handsome L.B. was picked up as a stray and brought to a shelter in the south. Although he was as friendly as can be, L.B. had hair loss, was emaciated, and tested positive for heartworms. A local rescue recognized that L.B. was a special guy that needed more care than the shelter could provide. As a result, they pulled L.B. with the hope that they could start his road to recovery while looking for a breed specific rescue that would find L.B. an amazing forever family. When we learned that L.B. needed help with the next step of his journey, we welcomed him to the MAGSR family.
L.B. is a sweet, endearing, and lovable guy. Although we do not know anything about his past, it is evident that at some point he was well socialized with people and other dogs. As is true of all GSDs, L.B. will thrive with structure, routine, and leadership. He is hoping that his forever family enjoys long walks, playtime, and plenty of snuggles. True of all dogs, training is critical for L.B. Training will not only help L.B. build a strong, healthy bond with his forever family, but it will also help him develop into a good canine citizen. L.B. has waited patiently for his forever family. Could that be with you?
Updates
I walked L.B. (Loverboy) on Sunday. He was easy to leash up, loves treats, loves to follow his nose, and is a good looking youngster. He is friendly, saw no reaction to other pups, jumped into the back seat of my car, without treat, and knows "sit". Threw a paw in there when chicken was involved but that might have been accidental. He does not appear to be interested in balls or other toys, but is still a fun companion, and will do a decent loose heel when prompted. Just an all around friendly pup who needs to add a few pounds and who will allow you to check his ears, paws and teeth and will throw in a few kisses to boot.
