Reed is a 10 month old lab shepherd mix he is amazing with kids of all ages, good with other dogs and cats but you have to keep a close eye on him with chickens, he’s good when you’re with them but if you’re not out there he cannot be trusted to not chase your chickens!!! He is very loyal, he is housebroken, he sleeps in, he does not enjoy car rides for some reason ,I hope he may grow out of it when he gets older though!! Reed came to me as a three month old puppy he lived outside with his several other siblings the only shelter he had was living under the trailer of his owners, him and his siblings came to me I got everybody vetted and up-to-date on vaccines he was the only black puppy out of the litter everybody else was brindle so he has been with me for quite some time because of his coloring. He does have a very unique spot on his chest we call it his ghost spot !!!
   He is 57 pound of pure love and devotion, he does love a strong female as he is my little side kick, he likes being around men also but he is absolutely a lady’s man all the way ???????? for question or more information on Reed feel free to contact me!! |

—-Copy/paste from my own post in GD thread.—-
For those on the fence….a phone call to the foster is free. Maybe Reed is the right dog for you, maybe not. There’s no commitment necessary to engage in a pleasant conversation. I have been in a similar position myself a number of times, wondering if I’m ready for a new companion. It’s a difficult decision but I’ve found that simply talking with the rescue allows me to reconcile my doubts and gain clarity with respect to the possibilities. (Original Post) Bump TTT … But I am a bit surprised that he hasn’t been claimed. Reed is quite literally the PERFECT , DO IT ALL DOG in one package. Young and trainable to your lifestyle? Check. Want a mellow companion? He’s a Lab. Want an alert guardian? He’s a Shepard. Concerned about breed specific health? Mix eliminates most issues. Vetted for compatibility with kids/animals? Done. Reed is a blank canvas ready for you to paint your vision of the perfect canine companion. Unless you REQUIRE a very specific dog for a working task to the exclusion of all others, Reed checks all the boxes and then some. Finally, how cool would it be to become the guardian/ caretaker of the FIRST graduate of the legacy SFDR. There will only be one Mark-1 Mod 0 and Reed is it. A limited edition of one, if you will. I will personally have a custom collar made, (with the requisite flair denoting his exclusive pedigree) ,and delivered to the new owner. That my friends,(adopting Reed and posting pics) is how you properly flex on the rest of GD dog owners, myself included. Duke |

Thank you for your amazing post!! Reed is definitely the perfect dog , I have had lots of dogs but he is a special soul, every once In a while I will get a dog and know right off the bat that it’s going to break my heart when they leave , and that is Reed!! He is amazing with all my kids , I had a new foster in my house that started a dog fight and Reed got in front of my 3 year old to keep her safe!! He is amazing! If anyone wants to call and talk or ask questions please feel free!!!
My heart breaks so his will never have to again  🐾❤️🐾❤️

thinking about it. I just moved and place not set up. and some money issues. but Im close to where he is somewhat.
also not home for 9-12 hours at a time currently. but probably put a kennel run outside or something. neighbors have a sheppard outside, and landlord has invisible fence for their dogs. |

Mark did a lot of the transport for me, Crash and Netro and a few other came from me , so since this is my first Semper Fi dog on my own I am going to make the Journey with him!
I want to be with him since he doesn’t like car rides and I want to capture every moment to share with you guys !! You guys are so amazing and I feel the love for Reed from all of you !! I have a hospice dog coming this week who is in bad shape so we will be doing the transport next week!! We will keep everyone UTD

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Pelican34: Duke, I am sure Reed will be honored to wear the collar that you have made. I know my family will be. Thank you. Couple of things…. 1.Pelican34, if you prefer please put him in a traditional collar for everyday use, I want to make sure he’s secure. There’s only a couple types of collars that I trust particularly if we’re out in woods. If he’s anything like a younger version of my rescue lab, there’s no telling what he’ll get into. My old guy has mellowed but was a madman ( in the best possible way) when he was a puppy. Just thinking about it brings a smile to my face. It could be for special occasions, or when Reed is feeling particularly fancy. Sure to impress the neighborhood bitches( yes, I’m referring to female dogs before anybody yells at me). A canine issue of dress blues, if you will. @imperfectlyperfect3 @Kitties-with-Sigs 2. I have never been accused of being overly artistic so any suggestions from you creative types out there would be most appreciated. PRO TIP: Might make for an interesting topic/post in General Discussion (soliciting ideas for the design) to call attention to SFDR and Joker’s new sub forum. A fun contest of sorts that just happens to have your fund raising link attached. Visibility is a key component to any successful enterprise. Cast a wide net, keep your audience engaged and good things happen. Should someone be so inclined.😉 Let me know what you think might be a proper tribute to the newly risen SFDR and befitting the occasion. I’ll take it from there. Duke |
