About Jiggy.. A Loyal, loving Larrakin
Jiggy is gorgeous big boy who mixes well with other dogs. He previously lived with a working couple and an older female shepX who was storm phobic and very anxious. Jiggy was her rock and has a nice, steady and friendly personality. He still enjoys toys and loves a good romp in the yard. He walks nicely and is comfortable wearing a halti.
Jiggy is a 3 year old unpapered purebred German Shepherd. Sheps are very loyal working dogs and known for their high intelligence. He appreciates routine and responds well to a reliable and consistent human. He loves learning and learns quickly. He has mixed well with other dogs and is still quite playful in his interactions with younger dogs and respectful of seniors.
Jiggy has an imposing bark that he saves for strangers. He responds well when his handler calls him away and lets him know all is well. He also responds well to prompts to Sit, Wait and Lay Down and is generally a quite, happy guy who enjoys whiling away the hours on his couch.
He will need good fencing, and would be happier if visibility was low along front footpaths, as he is likely to greet strangers who pass by with a noisy hello which can be misinterpreted.
He is currently residing with another female Shep and lives with cats, caged birds and a toddler. He is an outdoor dog who lays quietly inside when invited in to enjoy the aircon, travels well and enjoys adventuring. Ideally, his new home would be solo if his new owners have high availability, or shared with another female dog if in a working household.
If you think Jiggy would be a good fit for your family, or might be the best mate you have been waiting on, we would love to see him in his forever home for Christmas. Please send through an application letter, detailing your family dynamic and work hours/availability and let us know about your fencing, any existing or visiting dogs, and your experience with dogs or this breed.
Please also include your general availability to help with scheduling a meet.
Medical notes
Jiggy is in good health and does not require any medication.
