Ocean

My story

🌊 Meet Ocean, A27200 – A Wave of Energy, Love, and Loyalty! 🐾 Ocean is a 2-year-old, 53-pound German Shepherd with a heart as big as his personality. This handsome boy came to us as a stray and was neutered by our medical team. Now, he’s ready to ride the wave into his forever home! Ocean is a mix of excitement, love, and classic Shepherd smarts. He barks when he sees people—not out of fear, but because he’s so happy you’re there. He’ll patiently wait for treats, eyes full of hope, and when it’s time to come out of his kennel? Get ready for the wiggles! 🐕💨 He’s a little jumpy with excitement when it comes to leashing or getting attention, but it’s all love. He’ll bounce up for toys, treats, or just to be close to you. Ocean is ALL about the affection—he’s down for pets, kisses, hugs, and a little roughhousing if you're game! Because of his high energy and current kennel stress, Ocean is still learning boundaries. He gives off the vibe that he needs trust and reassurance, and probably wouldn’t love being physically restrained without knowing he’s safe. Once that bond is built though, he’ll be your ride-or-die. Ocean would thrive with: A patient and confident adopter who understands working breeds. Plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. A home where trust is built through love, structure, and positive reinforcement. He’s got all the raw potential to be an amazing companion—he just needs someone who’s ready to show him the world can be safe and full of love. Dive in—Ocean is ready to meet his forever person. Could it be you? 🌊❤️
