Wally is a purebred GSD looking for his forever home!! He was originally surrendered with 2 other male siblings when they were just 10 weeks old and we were still located in Lyndhurst. He was adopted, but recently returned because he's A LOT OF DOG! We know that may sound like a negative thing, but we also know that Wally truly just needs an >>EXPERIENCED GSD<< owner who can commit to training him with patience. He's a big boy who CRAVES structure and is NOT a low-key pup or couch potato. We believe Wally's person is out there, a true GSD fan with an understanding of how these fellas operate! Come visit him to fall in love!

πŸͺ–πŸͺ–πŸͺ– THIS WEEK ONLY, IN HONOR OF OF VETERAN'S DAY, >>all active or retired military can take home ANY of our available shelter pets FOR FREE (with valid ID)<< through Saturday, 11/14!

πŸͺ–πŸͺ–πŸͺ–If you know a veteran looking for a wonderful pup to train to become a wonderful companion or working dog, NOW'S THE TIME TO SPREAD THE WORD! Tag someone you know who might be interested in gorgeous guy WALLY!

APPLY TO ADOPT WALLY on our WEBSITE: https://svasc.net
