About

Meet Smokey

Smokey is a handsome pup with a sweet personality. He is a little timid at first but warms right up when he has another pup to play with! He loves being outside and is often sunbathing or playing with his siblings! Smokey is potty trained and kennel trained. Smokey does well with other dogs, cats, and children. Smokey is a kind, gentle boy, would make a great dog for a family who enjoys spending time outside!Like any of our dogs, this sweet, handsome boy would make a great addition to an active home that will provide the love, structure, good leadership, activity and mental stimulation that this breed needs.  Because of that, Smokey's ideal owner will have prior GSD or other herding breed experience, and a friendly dog buddy for Smokey.  Even if you exercise and play with your dog daily in your fenced yard, please remember  that you MUST still take your dog out on daily walks and outings, in order to provide sufficient stimulation, ward off boredom, and work on leash skills, and manners.   Smokey's adoption fee is $295, all of which goes back into offsetting our high-cost vetting expenses and rescuing more dogs.  We are a 100% volunteer-run rescue group and rely on adoption fees and donations to continue saving lives. Adoption fees include spay/neuter, current on age-appropriate vaccinations, fecal, deworming, flea/tick and heartworm preventative, heartworm tested if old enough (and treated if positive), and microchipped.
