Wilbur von Winden is a beautiful 1-2 year old plush coated German Shepherd. Wilbur's a handsome ball of fluff and goofiness. He thinks life is about having fun and whether you're human or canine, he wants to play with you. After some horsing around, he’s ready to melt in your arms and shower you with sloppy kisses of appreciation. He is eager to please you. He knows his sit and, though treat-motivated, he takes the goodies gently. He’s great on a leashed walk with a group of dogs, where he is initially excited but settles quickly into a heel position. He’s happy to meet any people or dogs who cross his path. Play group is yet another opportunity to have fun and explore new territory. Wilbur enjoys greeting everyone. Isn’t is nice to know there’s somebody waiting to play with you? (Unfortunately, he doesn’t play well with cats.) IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN Wilbur von Winden YOU MUST FILL OUT AN ADOPTION APPLICATION ON OUR WEBSITE: www.sheprescue.org Application link: http://www.sheprescue.org/Application_to_Adopt_a_Dog%20Main.html Based on our experience, Westside's current thinking is to usually match first-time shepherd owners with a mix versus a purebred shepherd. Mixes are "softer" and somewhat more malleable. Exceptions can be made, however, for first-time adopters who show the confidence and leadership tendencies that purebreds will respect and respond to. Counselors have to use good judgment in assessing the attributes of the adopter, as well as of the dog. If you have doubts, get a second opinion from Robin or another experienced counselor.
If you have any questions or would like to adopt Wilbur von Winden, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
