| Axel is a handsome 1-year-old, 75-lb. GSD with a beautiful sable coat and big light-brown
eyes that radiate intelligence and curiousity about the world around him. Axel is very athletic, and one of his
favorite activities is swimming and fetching sticks and balls thrown into Lake Frank and Rock Creek near his
foster home in Rockville, MD. Axel is an exuberant rather than a graceful swimmer; he leaps into the water
with great gusto, often sticking his head underwater and barreling along like a submarine to reach sticks thrown
for him. Axel has been started on basic obedience commands, and he is looking for a person who is interested
in dog training and taking a dog to school. Axel has great potential to be an outstanding competitive obedience
and agility dog, and he would like to find a home that enjoys participating in these kinds of activities. Axel is
house-trained and crate-trained, plays well with other dogs, loves cats and occasionally chases them and gives
them a mouth massage, and adores people he knows. He can be a little shy with people he does not know, so he
is looking for a person who will take him everywhere and socialize him with everyone in the great wide world.
If strangers give him pieces of cheese or liver, Axel warms up quickly and is eager to play fetch, get a belly rub,
or go for a hike. If you are an active, outdoorsy person with an interest in competing in various K-9 sports, this
sweet boy may be the one for you! WMMD
