Hello! My name is Abel and I am a 2year old Rottweiler/ German Shep. I am a very sweet boy who will require a very patient family. Since I am very high strung and very strong minded, I will need an experienced large breed owner that will take me to obedience classes to improve myself.

I am a playful puppy who needs a home where I can let out all of my puppy energy while getting all the mental stimulation I need. Strong, smart and playful, I take things to the extreme. I'm looking for humans who haven't lost their inner puppy. Someone who won't get overwhelmed by my very energetic and hectic puppy antics.

I do well with some dogs, so I will have to meet my new friend before moving in together. I sometime get very excited, well I spin circles and forget that I have someone at the end of my leash, I am not being mean but I will need to help with this temptation. Unfortunately, I am not good with children at this time as I don't realize how strong I am most of the time. I am great with people I know, but strangers sometimes scare me so I bark out of fear.

I require a large fenced in backyard and will not be able to live in a condo or apartment. Staff suggest I be crate trained when left alone to keep me out of trouble.

If you have experience with large breeds and think you can be my fuuurever family, call Vaughan Animal Services to meet me!!
