Companion Pet Rescue of Middle Tennessee

Loki is a young (under 2) male German Shepherd. He is fully vetted, house trained, neutered and knows basic commands. He does well with other dogs and children over the age of 10 probably just due to his sheer size and not realizing he can knock small children over. Not sure how Loki is around cats at this time so a cat free home for now might be best. Loki does have separation anxiety and must be crated in a strong crate when left alone. He will also need a privacy fence at least 6 feet since he can easily jump a 4 foot fence. Loki will need a very patient and understanding family who will be willing to continue to work with him on his anxiety and give him all the love and time he needs to become his best self. A family knowledgeable and experienced with this breed (or any herding breed) will be ideal. Loki has so much love to give and is trying to overcome his anxiety. Lots of mental challenges and plenty of exercise will help him immensely. Loki can be found through Companion Pet Rescue of Middle Tennessee, 615-260-8473, or https://www.facebook.com/companionpetrescueofmiddletennessee/
