Y'all can see more in the transport thread in GD HERE
~Kitties Mavis is a 1 yr old female GSD 32 ibs completely vetted , she is one of Marks personal dogs that lived with him at his house and when Mark went to the hospital I found her a home through what I thought was a friend but unfortunately I was sadly mistaken! The woman is being kicked out of the apt. And with no where to go she is taking Mavis to the local shelter. I am told she isn’t good with cats , she has a lot of energy and living in a one bedroom apartment , I am told she needs a lot of training for her high energy. I am told she gets along with some dogs but not all but I think with the right person she would be fine !! Mark would be unbelievably disappointed in me for allowing this to happen to one of his dogs, if you are interested in adopting or fostering Mavis please contact me asap She is living in Norwood Ohio but transport can be arranged

Man, you can just see the coiled-spring energy in that dog. Needs acreage with kids.

Oh boy
 I just lost my GSD Monday, RIP Zelda Shoot me an IM with any info you have, my biggest concern is we watch our 4 year old grandson M-F evenings. Zelda was 6 when the boy was born so she was very tolerant with being poked and prodded by the boy as he grew. |

Ok, the dog is in Ohio, and the onboard wife is in WI, do I have that right?
So, I live in Illinois, someone PM me if any help is needed for transport - either financial or underground railroad style... |

Sounds like it’s taken care of.
I’m in Oklahoma and can help with transport if needed. I was slightly interested but need to ask. I’ve wanted a GSD since I was a kid and never had one. What would I be in for as far as attention and exercise? |

I’ve wanted a GSD since I was a kid and never had one. What would I be in for as far as attention and exercise? They are individuals like people, but overall, are very high-energy dogs. They need exercise, and just as much, they need a "job." If you don't assign them a job, teach them boundaries, and that you (and your family) are alpha, they will assign themselves a job, and won't know where they fit in your household. They want to please, and are watching "their" person to key off that person for what is expected. The mistake I see folks make with GSDs is failing to give them appropriate obedience training, and to participate with the dog in that training. Training like that (if it's any good) teaches the person to read the dog, and teaches the dog what is expected. It also turns what can be a big, powerful troublemaker into a good citizen, and a dog that is the best thing that could ever happen to a human being. Once you are owned by a GSD, it's hard to ever go back to not having one. I've had rotties. I love rotties. But a GSD is something...special. They need room to run and a fence that they either cannot jump (that's a high fence) or are taught to NOT jump. They are smarter than you are. Don't underestimate that. (smarter than I am, for certain, and I've worked with them as SAR dogs for 30 years.) |

The training I am not too worried about and can and absolutely would provide and participate in. I’m just not sure I am at a point in life to be able to spend enough time with them. Sometimes I work late and a 1-2 mile walk would even be a stretch. |
