Here is the scoop on Aros and Cody: From Marty Aros is about 5 years old and is a purebred German import. He comes from champion lines, but he was turned in because, according to the breeder ... he has no drive. That sounds fishy-so I don't know what the scoop really is, but he does look like a champion import line. He hates cats, was kicked by a horse recently, and has a very large prey drive/not play drive (so he likes to kill squirrels, but not chase a ball) ... but we'll work on that. He can sit ( sitz), down (platz), stay (bliphe), and heel (foos). He does well at the park and in the house and car. He is an excellent deterrent to crime since he looks like a killer ... but he is just a big baby. Now .... He needs a very alpha owner because if he does want something, he will use all his 80 pounds to get it (like the cat and squirrels). With an alpha owner, he is a big baby. He just had mouth surgery to remove a canine and some molars that were broken by the horse kick, he has a few cysts that the vet was going to take care of then (one on his left neck, one on his lower back, and one on one of his sides), but didn't get to because the surgery was so long. Nothing to worry about, they just need to be excised by the vet. Cody is a Ferrell girl. They don't know much about her except that she looks like a coyote and is about 7 mths old. Animal control wanted to put her down because they thought she could never live with people in a house. Wrong! She is scared of everything and needs Aros around to protect her. She has had accidents in her crate when she is scared, but basically is housebroken. She loves her crate and as long as she has access to it, she is fine. Feeding: The puppies get about 6 cups of puppy food a day split in 2 feedings. Aros gets about 3-4 cups of food a day. I have been moistening it for him post mouth surgery, but he is okay to eat it dry now. Aros will jump for his food, so beware. Right now I sit in the middle of the couch and make Aros eat on the other side of the coffee table, Athena beside me to the left and Cody to the right ... but Cody probably won't do it for strangers, so it is fine to feed her or them wherever. Aros and Cody German Shepherds are available for adoption as of 7/9/08. nobleshepherdrescue.com/ More photos and video here:drop.io/nobleshepherdrescue Photos and editing by Shane K Smith Fostered by Marty: horsedoeuvre.moonfruit.com/ Contact: nobleshepherdrescue.com/ Video Editing: shanesflyingdiscshow.com/ Inspired by: community.myfoxwghp.com/ Pet of The Week!
