Schulz German Shepherd Dog Mix Macon, GA

Name: Schulz

Breed: German Shepherd

Sex/Age/Weight: Male/estimated 2 years old/62lbs at the moment, but I am severely underweight

Vetting: Up-to-date on all vaccines, neutered, microchipped, and receiving treatment for heartworms.

House trained/Crate Trained: In progress.

Dogs/Cats/Children: Has not been observed around dogs, cats, or children, but can be tested upon request.

Energy Level: High-I am a super-active dog who needs a high-energy owner.

Before FAR/My History: I was found 8/7/2024 running on the road in a rural area next to some cotton fields. I was very skinny, flea-bitten, and thirsty, but I love to ride in a car so I hopped right in when a human pulled up. The vet says I need to gain some weight, but overall I am very healthy. I am in treatment for heartworms right now, but as soon as I am done with that I will be ready to play. No microchip or owner was found, and someone suggested I was dumped because I wasn't a mean, protective German Shepherd aka a failure. I am a sweet boy and would love to be part of someone's family.

Training Status/Commands I know: So far I know sit.

Working on: Everything. I am trying to learn a lot while I treat my heartworms, but some exercises will have to wait until after treatment. I have so much energy, but I am working on channeling it into being a good dog.

Things I like: Food! I was 25 lbs underweight when I was found, so I really enjoy any food/treats I am given. I am always ready to run and explore in search of food. Maybe after I gain weight I will be interested in other things, but right now I just want to find the food. I am an active breed and need stimulation. I love games where I get to find things like hidden treats. If you like to go-go-go, I am the perfect dog for you!

Things I don't like: I haven't been out and about enough for my humans to know what I don't like. Right now, I don't like waiting on my dinner, but I will sit for it like a good boy.

Things that make my humans happy: My excitement for everything and my attitude. The humans don't know where I came from or what I experienced but I am sweet nonetheless and am very happy in my new life.

Ideal Family/Home: Right now I am still a mystery. I haven't gotten to play with other dogs or people other than my humans, but soon I will start interacting with the other fosters and going places with my human to see who my perfect family could be.
