About Comanche (4.14)
Status: Adopted! Adoption Fee: 300 Species: Dog General Color: Black with Tan, Yellow or Fawn Current Age: 13 Years 9 Months (best estimate)

COMANCHE is a hunk of a shepherd who sadly has already had two homes in his short life, the last ending when he was unceremoniously dumped at a shelter with another dog because his owner didn't have a yard to keep him in. We understand why Comanche is so confused when on leash and around new people and animals - he's been nothing but a lawn ornament in his previous homes.

Fortunately, MOGS is here to help and get him started on a path of existing as PART of the world and more importantly part of a family! He's in a wonderful foster home learning about the leash and other expectations of a well socialized dog and he's off to a great start! Comanche can be uncertain around new men (previously lived with women only) and new situations (most things are new to Comanche).

Comanche is new to MOGS and we'll update more on him as we continue to learn his temperament and needs from his FOREVER family. We suspect with some good leadership and instruction along with continued socialization he will become a wonderful family member.

DOGS:                   Comanche showed no interest in the several other dogs he was dog tested with at the shelter. We'll see how he does with further dog testing after he adjusts to his foster home.
CATS:                    Unknown, needs to be tested.
KIDS: Unknown, needs to be tested.
IDEAL FAMILY:       A loving family that will make Comanche an integral family member to help him understand he's safe, loved, safe, cared for, safe, secure, and did we mention safe??

STOP!! READ THIS BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER!

We're picky about our adopters.
Are you sure you're up to having a GSD? They're not for everyone. They take a lot of time, effort, training. They shed year round. They're big. They scare lots of people. They "mouth" and herd. They're usually strong-willed and stubborn. You have to have references and a home visit. If you're not willing or able to deal with any of this, please don't waste your time or ours applying.
Will the dog be an inside family pet? We do not adopt to outdoor-only homes. All dogs must be indoor dogs.
Do you leave your dog outdoors when you're not home? We do not adopt to homes that leave their animals outside when they're gone. You must put your dogs indoors when you're gone. A 3 yr old adopted MOGS dog died when the owners went to run errands, left her outdoors, the gate was somehow opened, and she was hit by a car. Tragic and 100% preventable. Even privacy fences get broken into. Gates are opened. Thieves steal dogs. Never leave your dog outdoors when you're not home!!
What's your plan for unexpected events and major changes? New baby? Divorce? Moving? How you will provide for your dog if your family breaks up?
Will you make a lifetime commitment? It's your responsibility to keep your dog safe, loved and cared for FOR LIFE.
Do you understand we expect you to keep that lifetime commitment? It's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to stick by your family member -- no matter what.
Are you unable or unwilling to make a lifetime commitment? Do not apply.
