Meet Tango a 1 1/2 year old male Shepherd. Tango is a big beautiful boy weighing about 85 lbs. He is still growing and on the thin side so his ideal weight may be around 95 lbs.
We just got him from the shelter and are still learning about him. Tango is sweet and he loves his foster mom. He had no training when we got him but is very smart and eager to please so he is learning quickly. He has learned wait, sit and down. He has also learned to walk well on a leash with occasional reminders. He does not appear to have a high prey drive when he sees squirrels. We take walks every day and he interested in all that he sees.
We think Tango spent a lot of time out in a yard because he loves chewing on his tennis ball as he charges around the yard. So a
fenced in yard is a must
. He is very good to come when you call him. If you leave to go in the house he is ready to follow. Tango is looking for companionship and guidance and will bond very quickly.
Tango seems to like other dogs. He is very playful and wants to engage and run and play. Because of his size we are trying to teach him more manners. He has also has shown signs of being good with Linus the training cat, but we are still working on that.
Tango would probably be OK with older, well behaved children. Because of his size and strength (knocking them over) we do not recommend him for young children.
Tango must have an experienced owner who wants to continue his training and socialization. He is an adolescent coming into his own and he has tried to be protective and is learning that people are OK and no one is going to hurt him again. When meeting new people he is cautious but warms up quickly. Still a work in progress.
Tango has just been neutered, up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is crate trained.
Tango is a great boy that needs a loving and experienced home. If you are an experienced GSD person (and strong) looking for a companion Tango may be the boy for you. A FENCED IN YARD and GERMAN SHEPHERD EXPERIENCE IS A MUST!
