Please read all of the bio to ensure you have all information.
KINGSLEY is neutered, rabies, core vaccines, de-wormed, heartworm & tick-disease tested Negative and micro-chipped, he weighs around 71pounds and has an estimated date of birth of May 2013.
KINGSLEY is a confident boy who is desperate to have a human whom he can look up to and please. He is good with most dogs, but when there is a dog he doesn't like then he does let them know. I believe he would be the alpha dog in family with other dogs and a meet up with any other dogs before adoption is a must.
KINGSLEY is a very happy boy, who is extremely responsive, he does know the command sit and when he does so, he comes close to your feet to sit and automatically looks up to you for further instruction. This makes me believe that he has had some training. He clearly enjoys being with humans and learning and taking instruction. He has played with a few toys for a short time, but is more interested in keeping a check on what is going on and being with me.
We do not have cats in the rescue, however, we do have a rabbit in two XL dog crates tied together - ROSE does pay attention when BUGS stamps her feet and runs up and down the crates, but she isn't obsessed with her at all.
KINGSLEY will need a family that understands the German Shepherd Dog mentality and their needs. Although KINGSLEY is estimated to be around 3 years old, he is still very active and needs to have lots of mental stimulation as well as physical exercise. I believe KINGSLEY would thrive in a family who have alpha personalities so that he knows under no certain terms who is the boss and that this environment along with training, an active life-style and lots of love and affection would be perfect for him.
KINGSLEY is available for adoption through Give a Dog a Home, German Shepherd Dog Rescue for an adoption fee of $450. This fee is not negotiable and is used to cover the rescue costs of pulling, vetting, health certificate, transport from Texas to Maine, monthly preventatives, supplements, food and anything else that is needed.

KINGSLEY is located at the rescue in Sebec, Maine. We post in various states along the east coast and Canada where we have had lots of successful adoptions to enable more exposure for these beautiful saved souls. Families will need to be prepared to travel to the rescue to meet and take home their new best friend. There is a local hotel in Dover-Foxcroft that is pet-friendly (approx 6 miles) and several in Bangor (approx 45 miles). There are also lots of wonderful camp-sites for the more adventurous families and what a great way to get to know your new best friend.
