About Vlad
Meet Vlad, an endearing 8-month-old German Shepherd crossed with Staghound who is poised to bring joy and companionship to your life. With his gentle spirit and plush coat, Vlad is truly a heart-stealer. Though initially timid, he blossoms into a bundle of warmth and affection once he gets to know you, transforming into one of the most cuddly puppies you could hope to meet.
Vlad came to the shelter with his pals Lil Buddy, so he's quite comfortable around other dogs and would thrive in a household with canine companions. He would also do well with children, making him a perfect fit for families looking to add a furry friend to their home. With a bit of patience and understanding, you'll see Vlad's playful spirit come to life, as he learns to trust and share his affectionate nature.
While Vlad is not suitable for homes with livestock, he is ready to adapt to a warm and loving environment. His ideal family would offer him the nurturing and playful environment he craves while reinforcing his sense of security. If you're searching for a loving pup who brings affection and joy once he gets acquainted, Vlad might just be the perfect addition to your pack!

Adoption details
We run by appointment, prefferibly all members of the household to come meet the animal you are wanting to adopt.
If you own another dog, you must bring them along to make sure all dogs get along.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
