Update - Oh, Jack really blew it! He was adopted by the most wonderful woman who adored him and he adored her. She was even building a fence in her backyard so he would have plenty of room to run. But guess what? Jack loves cats - well, no, Jack loves to chase cats. And this kind woman has several of them (all now hiding on the top of the highest bookcases....). She was in tears when she returned dummy to us but knew that she couldn't put her animals through this transition, especially since we can't be sure Jack will ever give up his new hobby. So, if you want a wonderful dog, and I do mean wonderful, and you would like to make sure that no cats ever venture into your yard, boy, do I have the dog for you!

Jack is a beautiful Shepherd mix. He is a real sweetheart, always up for a quick game of catch! He still has enough puppy in him to want to keep you company when you're on the go. Don't you just love him!

***According to dogbreedinfo.com, in April 1899, Capt. Max von Stephanitz registered a dog named Horan as the first Deutsche Schà¤ferhunde, which means German Shepherd Dog in English. Known for their tremendous loyalty and courage, they are calmly confident, but not hostile. This breed needs his people and should not be left isolated for long periods of time. They only bark when it is necessary.

Serious and almost human in his intelligence, they have a high learning ability. The breed is so intelligent and learns so readily that it has been used as a sheepdog, guard dog, in police work, as a guide for the blind, in search and rescue service, and in the military. The German Shepherd also excels in many other dog activities including schutzhund, tracking, obedience, agility, flyball, and ring sport. His fine nose can sniff out drugs and intruders, and can alert handlers to the presence of underground mines in time to avoid detonation, or gas leaks in a pipes buried 15 feet underground.

A quick daily brushing is best unless hair in the house is not a problem. They should be bathed rarely, only once or twice a year to avoid skin oil depletion. Shepherds have a life expectancy around 13 years.
