Located At: Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter
Description: My name is Grizzly.
I am a male, black German Shepherd Dog mix.
I am a male, black German Shepherd Dog mix.
Age: The shelter staff think I am about 3 years old.
More Info: I have been at the shelter since Oct 31, 2025.
Grizzly is a stunning German Shepherd mix who’s been quietly blossoming more confident each day. When he first arrived, the shelter was overwhelming, but now he eagerly heads out for walks sitting politely to be leashed and proudly showing off his “sit” and “paw.” As he learns to trust, Grizzly offers soft, sweet eye contact and gentle connection with his people. He walks nicely on leash, though loud noises can still make him uneasy, and he’s been friendly with strangers outside his kennel. Grizzly would thrive in a teens-only home with someone who understands shepherds and can provide the patience, structure, and reassurance he needs to feel safe and secure.
