Bear is a beautiful, inquisitive, friendly, well behaved young sable GSD at 15 months old and still entire. His jabs are up to date until April and he is already booked in for his annual booster on 5/4/19. He is also microchipped. He has been a house dog with his current owners since 8 weeks old, has been very well looked after and is in beautiful condition.  He is highly intelligent and loves positive, reward based attention and fuss.  He is inquisitive, playful and shows a flare for tracking and finding things (his Dad and biscuits to name but two).  He is fully house trained and very well behaved in the home.  He is currently fed Chappie wet food as he has been known to have occasional “GSD-tum” flare-ups on other brands. Mind you, he will try to eat just about anything though (including his GSRE Assessment form!), which likely contributes to his GSD-tum.  He shows no food or toy possessiveness and fetched and offered his tennis ball and rubber toy to my wife without being asked.  He has a very good understanding of and compliance with all the usual commands (sit, down, wait, paw etc).  His recall is good, but is easily distracted and struggles with recall if he sees another dog whilst out for walks – he can and has run off, wanting to play, even if the other dog and/or owner doesn’t!  He has previously been known to pull like a steam train when out on the lead, although this did not manifest itself during a walk with us a couple of months ago.  He has also been to a local Dog Training Club several times since (we’ve seen him there ourselves) and has made very good progress. A typical GSD, he is very inquisitive and loves interacting with other dogs and people, whether they like it or not. Unknown with cats, livestock or very young children.  Bear is currently the only dog in the house, but might well benefit from an older furry brother or sister to show him the ropes.  Fine at the Vets and no reaction to fireworks or loud noises.  Bear’s current owners clearly love him to bits and he loves them.  However, despite having had GSDs over many years, they freely admit they aren’t getting any younger (60s) and can find Bear a bit of a handful at times.  They fear the worst if he were to accidentally pull or knock either of them over.  Bear is still a young lad and has so very much to offer.  With training, confidence, plenty of exercise, mental stimulation and boundaries establishing, he should make a truly fantastic, loving, loyal, life-long companion.
