About Tyler (5.14)
Status: Adopted! Adoption Fee: 250.00 Species: Dog General Color: Brown/Chocolate with White Current Age: 10 Years 8 Months (best estimate)	Location: 64112

TYLER is a cutie who steals hearts everywhere he goes. He's fluffy, goofy and just plain adorable-puppy! He's loving, curious, energetic and is now looking for his forever home.

Tyler was dumped in a very rural area of southern MO and was found by a compassionate citizen before he starved or was attacked. He's one of the fortunate ones! He's also absolutely adorable -- friendly, curious, a very typical shepherd puppy. Like all shepherds, he needs trainingi and leadership, but when he gets that he will make a wonderful lifetime companion and friend for the right family.

Tyler is good with other dogs, very curious about cats, and he is in a foster home with 8 and 9 year old boys and is doing great. He's loving, energetic, and adores playing and being loved on.

Please remember that puppies are babies: they require non-stop supervision, chew stuff, have no maners, and generally bounce off the walls! It's all part of growing up. Before you adopt a puppy, please carefully consider your schedule, your time, your activity level, and whether you're both willing and able to provide the kind of non-stop supervision a puppy requires.

DOGS:                    Yes, would love a play buddy
CATS:                     still to be tested
KIDS:                     Is great with 8 and 9 year old boys in foster home
IDEAL FAMILY:      An active family with a doggie play buddy he can also learn from, and good leaders who are willing and able to put in the time, effort and leadership a puppy like Tyler needs! Securely fenced yard strongly preferred

If you're looking for an active, adorable puppy
to train, guide and love forever,
TYLER may be your guy!

TYLER's ADOPTION FEE: $250
This fee covers only part of what we spend to vet, board and rehab the dogs we save. On average we spend over $450 on each dog. We made a decision to keep our adoption fee at the 2005 level even though vet prices have doubled and tripled since then. We are constantly fundraising to cover the deficit. At minimum, your adoption fee includes the dog's spay/neuter, heartworm test, heartworm treatment if needed, rabies shot, distemper/parvo shot, bordatella shot, deworming, monthly heartworm and flea preventives, and microchip. In many cases it also includes surgery and various types of vet treatment for standard issues such as hot spots, ear infections and so on.

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.
