Patch Pets: Shepherd Mix Looking for a Home

According to the Animal Rescue League, 1-year-old Ford is a fun-loving and energetic Shepherd mix. He is very sweet and possesses the intelligence that German Shepherds are known for.

However, the rescue league recommends that Ford attend obedience classes to curb some of his youthful enthusiasm. Because of his high energy level, it is also recommended that Ford not be adopted into a home with small children.

Obedience training is an excellent way to bond with your dog, according to the rescue league, and it also helps with the socialization of your dog with other dogs and with other people.

Animal Rescue League offers training classes at its shelter, and Ford's adoption includes three private sessions.

Ford appears to like other dogs; although, if you have already have another dog, a proper introduction would be necessary.

For more information about Ford, contact his volunteer friend Ilene at rosspitt@aol.com. Ford's adoption fee is $115.
