hi Jupiter! This amazing boy is a 2 year old Belgian shepherd. He was surrendered by his family to the local animal control shelter because the owner was disabled and using a cane and could not keep up with him. He is about 65 lbs. We may be just a bit obsessed with Jupiter. He was nervous at the animal control, but once he came to us, he's been nothing short of amazing. His prior owner reported that he lived with a cat, is friendly, happy and active. He knows a few basic commands and is overall a very good boy. With us, he has been a big hugger, very affectionate with our volunteers. He loves the outdoors and is curious about his surroundings. For shepherd experienced families considering their first mal, he would be a great "starter mal". He will need to meet any resident dogs. He will come neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and 4dx tested. He is positive for heartworm and is currently undergoing treatment. He can be adopted during the treatment and the rescue will continue to support him medically during this. **If you are serious about adoption, please fill out the adoption application on our website www.phoenixanimalrescue.com His adoption fee is $450** Phoenix Animal Rescue Chester Springs, Pa Kennel License #5152
