Castro

Adopted!

Castro is a handsome guy, a black and tan pure-bred German Shepherd. He was surrendered to the shelter because his family couldn't afford a dog at this time. He is 80 pounds and 2 years old. He couldn't be happier in his new VGSR foster home. He spends his days playing with the other dogs and his nights dreaming about finding a permanent home soon. He promises to be the best dog ever for the family that will commit to his care and love him forever. Castro continues to surprise us with what he knows. He can sit, shake, down & stay on command. He is house-trained and a professional ball chaser. At the recent Petfest, Castro was seen with 6 very young children crawling all over him, so we assume he would do well in a home with children. It appears that he would also be an awesome service and/or therapy dog. Castro is being fostered in Northern Virginia.
