Johnny
Adopted September 14, 2006

Johnny, June and Willie were owner give ups to a shelter. Owners had a registered unneutered male and a mostly German Shepherd unspayed female. This is the result of an "unwanted" litter. They gave the pups to a shelter, who only agreed after having the mom and dad spayed and neutered so there would never be more "accidental" litters. These bundles of fluff now seek a loving home that understands that they will grow up. They will need obedience training and consistency and there is an expectation that these pups will be going to forever homes. These pups are not supposed to be adored while they are cute and then dumped at 9 months old when they are rambunctious, big puppies.
