Kiba (ref 38d) is a rather magnificent and enormously friendly 2 year old male German Shepherd Dog with a very fine black-and-tan coat.* He was brought to Derby RSPCA Centre because his last owner was no longer capable of coping with owning more than one dog.
In spite of having lost his owner, his home and his companion dog, he is in quite good spirits* -* but the sooner he can find a loving new home, the better.
He is a very sociable dog indeed and is never happier than when he’s keeping company with the human race.
He currently only seems to know 3 or 4 commands, but is a highly intelligent dog who could easily learn more and who would respond enthusiastically to training.* He would think that training was great fun and it would also help him to bond with his new owners.
Kiba is a pleasant, thoughtful and quiet dog who makes very good company indeed.* Like any young dog, he likes to play, but will immediately hand over a toy if asked to.
He would be suitable for a household where any children were aged 10+ and very kind and respectful to animals.* In spite of having lived with a dog previously, he doesn’t really seem interested in other dogs, preferring the company of people instead.* Like most dogs, he would be certain to chase after cats and rabbits, so needs to live somewhere where there aren’t any to chase.
Obviously he is a strong and active boy who will need owners who can give him plenty of regular exercise and walks in the fresh air.* Being a very intelligent dog, he will also need lots of opportunities to use his wonderful brain, as well as lots of interesting things to do and see.* He loves people so much that he can get rather upset if left all on his own, so he would be best off living in a household where there was generally someone around to keep him company.
Handsome Kiba is a thoroughly marvellous dog and his great love of people is very touching.* All he asks is to be allowed to be your good and trusted friend.
