Blake German Shepherd Dog Elgin, IL

Blake is stunningly handsome with golden eyes that speak to your soul. This young guy just turned 1-year and looking for the right place to call home so he can continue to grow in all the right ways. Blake is a shepherd through-and-through—you understand if you have shepherd experience. His people are his pack and he assess then accepts those who come into his circle. He is a dominant male that aligns best with submissive females. An outgoing, friendly boy who is house-trained and crate-trained but does have a break-out with crating every once in a while still. Gets alongs with other animals but can be selective with dogs. Preteen (10 yrs +) would be best due to Blake still learning to control his energy. Good at bath time, ear touch/cleaning, feet touching and nail trims. Tolerates all over touch and not hand shy. Needs a big, fenced yard to run out his young adult zooms. Loves long, walks and hikes with high-level of engagement. Enjoys playtime with toys or water as he goes crazy for water hose or fountain. Did we mention this guy is a road tripping fool as he lights up when he rides in the car. Blake requires an owner with Shepherd experience or previous dog ownership with a working breed. This is a young adult looking to become the best adult Shepherd he can be and the right family will help Blake shine his best. Blake is fully-vetted and microchipped.
