I sent the link to the GSD people I know.

Aww, this makes me kinda sad. No offense to your in-laws but,
almost all GSDs have high prey/toy drive. It's a breed trait. seems like
as soon as the little guy started to loosen up in new surroundings, they
find he's more than they wanted to deal with.

I do hope Sarge finds a younger family that has time to channel his
energy in the right direction. Good luck little buddy.

p.s. On petfinder ad he's listed as Large breed GSD. Will he be full sized
or small?

My friend Pat, who lives in Wauseon, OH, said she would post him on the Non Urgent dogs on her GSD site...can you give me any more info on him??

[ramanth]

How is he with cats? That might help his chances. I wish I could take him, but we are packed in that apartment.

Aw, that's too bad, he is such a handsome little guy. I can sympathize with your in-laws, though - a more than lively dog can be a real strain on older folk. It would be great if he can go to a home with a kid that can match his energy level. Paws crossed Sarge finds his perfect "furever" home soon.

Molly, all the info on Sarge in his petfinder listing is correct, you can give her that. Only one thing to add is that he is okay with dogs. I took Sierra over today and he was perfect! Actually, it's almost like he's never played with another dog, Sierra kept play bowing and chasing him but all he kept doing was running away from her! But he was not aggressive or mean at all!
I don't know how he is with cats, I don't even have a cat I could test him with!

Liz, He's about 9 months old and is 50 pounds, so I don't think he's going to get much bigger.

I already got an application for him and I just called them to set up a home inspection for tomorrow and the woman tells me that they're leaving for a ski trip on Tuesday till Sunday. Drat... oh well, if someone else comes along in the mean time then I'm all for it. She sounded nice and the application was good. (crate training till it's not needed anymore, sleep in their bedroom, they recently adopted a 7 month old GSD mix) We shall see....

Thank you all for helping me get the word out.
Sarge is such a good boy, I hate to see him go, but my in laws bit off more then they could chew with his furry ball of energy!

I've gotten 2 more applications for Sarge.
One is in Windsor Ontario Canada and another from Westerville, OH near Columbus.

Paws Crossed!!
