Story
Adoption fee: $375
Rogue is a 1 year old black and tan, male, Doberman with cropped ears and a docked tail. He is up to date on vaccinations, neutered, microchipped, and negative for heartworms and intestinal parasites.
Rogue came to GDR along with 3 other male Dobermans that were part of a cruelty case. All 4 boys were living outside with minimal human contact, fighting for what food was available, and doing what they had to survive. It wasn't until a couple of them got out of the fence and were running free in the neighborhood that they were picked up by animal control and given a second chance.
Rogue is velcro to the max and thrives on attention. He wants to be in your lap and touching whenever humanly possible. Because of this, he is starting to show early stages of separation anxiety. His foster crates him when she leaves for work, and while he does stay in there, he will scream and howl because he's not able to be with you. This is something his adopters will need to work on. He is still learning his house manners and is quite the thief, so he cannot be left unattended. At night he sleeps on his own bed in his foster moms’ bedroom and sleeps straight through the night. Rogue has a ton of energy and would do well with an active family that can help him burn it off. He goes for several walks a day as well as plenty of playtime in the backyard with his foster sister, and he's still ready to go. A fenced yard is a must for him, and canine-sister would definitely make him happy. he will not be homed with any male dogs due to the likelihood of same-sex aggression in the breed and that he was already fighting with his brothers in his prior home. He is not a good fit for a home with small children as he is oblivious to his size, and where his feet are at any given time. He would very easily knock over a small child unintentionally. We do not know how he is with cats. He's started learning some basic commands such as sit, down, and shake. He is also potty trained, but definitely needs work on a leash. When adopting Rogue, he will be required to be enrolled in obedience classes to give him the best start with his new family and get the training and socialization skills he missed out on in his earlier life.
