Randolph is a sweet, goofy shepski running at full throttle, ready for an active home with daily structure.
Randolph is everything you would expect from a shepski: a big personality, a big heart, and an engine that seems to run all day long. He greets the world with goofy enthusiasm and is always ready for whatever comes next. That zest for life is a big part of his charm, though it can occasionally get him into a little trouble.
When it comes to canine companions, Randolph would do best with a stable female who can keep him in check. He gets along great with Luna and shows polite interest in other females. Another high energy dog could be a challenge, since excitement that isn’t managed can tip over into trouble, and that is likely where his past dust ups with males came from. Randolph is also a bit of an insecure boy who likes to assert himself, so he will try to put himself over another male’s back in a heartbeat.
Underneath all that energy is a boy who worries a bit. Randolph carries some low level anxiety, and it shows most at mealtime. He is so focused on keeping watch over his surroundings that he struggles to let his guard down long enough to eat. A quiet, predictable place to eat and a consistent daily routine will go a long way toward helping him feel safe.
Randolph needs a fenced yard, daily walks (more than one if you can manage it), and plenty of structure to drain both his physical and mental energy. In return, his family will get a loyal companion with a big sense of fun who is always up for the next adventure.
