About Finn

Meet Finn!

Finn is a gorgeous 55-pound German Shepherd mix. Finn can be shy and timid when meeting new people and dogs and doesn't rush up to greet strangers. He prefers to observe from a distance and take things at his own pace before deciding someone is a friend. Those who take the time to earn his trust discover an incredibly loyal and devoted companion. Because of this, he is looking for a patient adopter who understands that building trust is a process. Once Finn feels safe and comfortable, his affectionate and loving personality shines through.

One of Finn's favorite things in the world is a good car ride. Whether it's a trip to the hardware store, the pet store, or a stop for a pup cup, Finn is always happy to ride shotgun, leaning against his person as if helping navigate the way.

He already knows basic commands like sit and has an excellent recall. Finn enjoys his daily walks, loves playing with his dog friends, and can often be found proudly carrying his favorite bone around. Because he has an energetic play style, he'd thrive in a home with another dog of similar size and energy level who can help show him the ropes and continue building his confidence.

He would do best in a calm, stable home with someone who understands the German Shepherd breed. Previous German Shepherd experience is required, as his adopter will need to appreciate his sensitive nature and be committed to helping him to continue to grow.

At 55 pounds, Finn is the perfect size for an adventure buddy. Once he bonds with his person, he's happy to accompany them anywhere-from cheering his family on at a lacrosse game, browsing the aisles at Home Depot, relaxing at a dog-friendly restaurant, or simply joining you wherever the day takes you.

If you're willing to give a shy dog the time and patience he deserves, Finn may be the perfect match.
