Lager, shepherd

Lager is a male shepherd dog being kept at SNIPSA Inc.

Lager is happy to keep company with cats, dogs and children. Lager is neutered, and he has had all his shots. He has mastered his house-training etiquette.

From Lager's current caretaker:

This fluffy shepherd mix will steal your heart as fast as he steals your spot on the couch. When he isn’t hogging the bed, Lager likes to go for walks and would love a backyard to run around in! A big guy like him will need a family that is going to be active and have enough room for him in the house. This fluffy boy is very treat motivated, so training should be easy! He also enjoys car rides so he would love to hop in the car for a road trip.

Hi I'm Bella! I am a smart but goofy girl who just wants to make you happy. I have learned lots in a short period of time; things like "come", "down", "sit" and "back". I am quite excited and energetic but I also enjoy being a rather large lap dog! I love people of all sizes and other dogs.
