Hi, my name is Dot and I am a 9-month old German Shorthair/Australian Shepherd mix!  I have LOTS of energy like a typical puppy.  I am a very smart boy that is eager to learn.  I’ve already mastered a few commands (sit and shake).  I recently joined GPPR and have settled in quickly.  I have two teenage hooman siblings who like to play with me and love on me but I have not spent much time around smaller hoomans.  I also have two GSP siblings (a 2 yo female and 5 yo male). I love playing with my foster siblings but sometimes need to go into timeout because I try to assert my dominance over them. I am house trained and crate trained. My foster mom says I’m very well behaved outside of the crate and do not bother objects that are not mine. We are working on leash training, but sometimes I prefer to chew on the leash so I can walk myself.  When I do finally settle down, I really enjoy cuddling.  I can be very vocal when it comes to things I am unfamiliar and/or uncomfortable with, including cats.  I am a sweet boy who can’t wait to find my forever home!
