I am an unaltered male, black and tan German Shepherd Dog.
My age is unknown and I weigh 96 pounds.
I was picked up in Charlotte.
I have been at the shelter since Jun 21, 2008.
This information is less than 1 hour old.
For more information about this animal, call:

I just spoke with Amy at this dept. and she said the dog was tranquilized in the field before being brought in to the shelter, so he was still groggy when the pic was taken. She did say he was brought in alone (I was wondering if he was brought in with the female here). She said someone seen the pic online and "thinks" this may be her dog, but she isnt sure so she will come in and look at him. IF this is not her dog, AC will call me back and let me know if he is any danger/still there so hopefully someone can help him.
She checked to see if he was aggressive, they said no that he was running from them for a couple hours and they couldnt catch him, so that is why he was tranquilized.
Thanks! I had Alex call and check also b/c I couldn't stand not knowing and they told her the same thing. Please keep us posted if they call you back about the owner.
This dog will not be put up for adoption because he is afraid of men. He will only be released to an approved rescue. I can pull from this shelter so if anyone can help him, he has until Sunday but I need to know something ASAP.
- Afraid of some men
- Great with women
- They do not do nose to nose intro's b/c they are a shelter and do not do in depth temp tests.
- When dogs walk past his cage he barks quite loudly and not in an I want to play way.
- He is 1-2 years old
- My contact believes once he is neutered it will help tremendously
- Thinks he might be a dominant male but again once neutered and in the hands of a good leader and GSD knowledgeable person she thinks it should be fine.
- Needs a strong, firm, calm, compassionate leader
- Passed his health check and is hw negative
- He weigh 96 lbs
- He is fine with raw hides but did do resource guarding with his food.
- My contact is being very optomistic and is having him neutered tomorrow.
So that efforts are not duplicated call me and I can call. I also do not want to annoy anyone at this place b/c I pull from here a lot. My cell is 571-242-5694 and my email is [email protected].
I asked a friend who volunteers there and who is a certified behaviorist to give me her opinion on him too.
Hi Alex,
They called me today as well and told me about what was going on, and that he is very sweet and loveable with women. I hope your contact can help- please let me know if any donations could be used towards his care.
They take pics with a camera on their PC in the lobby. I asked for an extension of a couple of days but with nothing concrete they may not give it. They are overloaded unfortunately. If I told them a rescue will take depending but need better pics and more info on behavior that would be one thing.
I am waiting on confirmation that they will ok the behaviorist meeting him on Sat. As soon as I have info from her I will post. She will prob take pics BUT as of now he needs to be pulled Sunday or will be euthanized so if anyone is thnking about it, let me know something now.
