Steph

FOSTER CARE! Hi, I'm Steph! I am a 7 month old, neutered male, Shepherd mix who currently weighs around 33 pounds, but will be 60-70 pounds as an adult. I am a rambunctious young fellow who loves to run around the play yard here at the shelter. I am looking for a very experienced adopter, who will help me work on my manners- especially my impulse control. When I see something I want, I can be very persistent to get it! I'd do best in a household with no smaller animals, as I tend to want to herd them, which could be stressful for the little guys. I have also known to be vocal when I want something- again, with more training and overall socialization, I can learn to be more patient. I would do best in a home with kids over the age of 8 and with folks who have had large breed experience before. If I sound like I could be the best new pup for you, bring the entire household- including any resident dogs, to meet me Steph ID#A0981148. My foster family sent an update! Here's how I'm doing: Steph is doing great! He has been happy and full of that puppy energy. We spent the week up at Lake Almanor and he loved every second of it! From chasing geese, running in the water, hiking Mt. Lassen, and playing with my family’s yellow lab:) He has been such a joy to have around. Sign up to meet me! Since I’m not at the adoption center, you can inquire about an in person meet and greet with me by emailing your fully completed Adoption Profile Form to You must be 18 or older to submit a profile.

I recently spent time with on of my PHS friends! Here's how I did: I think Steph is growing up to be a pretty swell young guy. He’s playful, affectionate, and respectful in the yard. He walks nicely on leash. He seems like he’s always looking to do the right thing - checking in with me and offering sits. He’s confident, people-oriented, and trainable. I think he would make a great partner for a dog sport like agility.
