Learn more about the German Shepherd Dog.
Lazlo is a male GSD who has a really sweet disposition and soft temperament. He enjoys bones, playing with his plushy green platypus, and loves food. He gently takes treats and is great with our 3 dogs. He enjoys walks but might enjoy playing with a dog friend more than walks. He is cautious outside so he does not try to charge ahead and explore. He would rather be by his people. He is new to leash walking but he is doing great with that. He does not bolt out the door and is really easy to direct. He will need continued training with his leash walking and overall training in his new home. He is very responsive to verbal corrections; he corrects easily. Lazlo does great with baths and car rides. He also has been doing great with his crate training. He easily goes in and settles very quickly when it is time to go to bed or when we leave for work. We are working on teaching him to use a bell at the door to alert us to him needing to use the bathroom. So far, Lazlo has had not issues with food. He is on a course of medication which will clear up some temporary skin issues he has. He is heart worm positive and has started on medication for that. If he is adopted before he completes the heart worm treatment, SSR will pay for the remaining treatment. Lazlo enjoys being with his people and has an overall very easy going attitude. He is a low to medium energy dog who would do best in a home with a family looking for a new family member that is on the quieter side. Older children who can be patient and gentle with him would be important for him to have. Overall, Lazlo is the absolute easiest dog I have met in a long time. He is truly an amazingly sweet dog. He is a bit of an old soul with a few highlights of spirited puppy when he is playing with other dogs. He loves to play with our young pup. As the days go by, he is showing that he has a super silly side and he is a bit of a ham. He would do best in a home where he can grow into the family routine. The world outside is still a huge unknown for him sometimes and he needs a family to be patient with him in that respect. This little man is a dream (insert swoon). He is being fostered in the Montclair/Dumfries area.
