13 month old neutered German shepherd
Bohdi is a 13 month old German shepherd with lots of energy. He is potty trained, crate trained, neutered, microchipped, and has had a gastropexy surgery done. He would do best as the only pet in the home for he is reactive to other animals. He has a biting history and after speaking with multiple trainers, they feel confident that he can improve his behaviors with training that I unfortunately cannot afford. He is a very loving and goofy dog. He burps too!
