(MA) Meet Shep, a 3-year-old Hound mix pup who came into rescue from a very sad surrender case. According to his Petfinder profile, Shep originally had a family to call his own, but they decided to surrender him as they were not "ready for the responsibility and patience that comes with loving a dog." They effectively gave up on him, but that's okay because now Shep has the opportunity to find a family that actually deserves him.
More Information On Shep
Shep is a 3-year-old Hound mix pup who weighs, as of 5/03/24, approximately 60 pounds. He has a short coat length, which is listed as being red, chestnut, orange, white, cream, and black. That's a lot of color! Shep is neutered and up to date on his vaccinations.
According to Great Dog Rescue New England, Shep is an amazing pup whose main characteristics are sweet, loving, intelligent, and attentive. His fosters can not say enough good things about him. Though he was a bit overweight when he came into foster care, he has cine trimmed up nicely and is now healthy and happy.
As far as training goes, Shep is a very well-behaved boy. He is house-trained, does well in the car, and has good leash skills. He gets along with other pups of all ages and sizes and also loves human children. His only issue is being a little too interested in cats, so GDRNE recommends he goes to a home without cats.
" Shep is the best! He is sweet, attentive, loving, smart, and well behaved... we could go on and on about how great he is. He came from a sad situation previously, but he has made himself quite comfortable since coming into our care!" - Great Dog Rescue New England / Petfinder
If you are interested in adopting Shep, please fill out the adoption application form, which can be found here. He is available for adoption to anyone 24 or older and living in New England, NY, NJ, or PA.
