Meet Republic!
Republic is a 3½-year-old gentle giant whose tough looks hide a sweet, sensitive heart. While he may appear confident, he's actually timid and can be frightened by unfamiliar sights and sounds-even things like a new walking path, a plastic jug, or his own shadow. Republic is a high-energy dog who will need a patient adopter committed to helping him build confidence through positive reinforcement and consistent training, especially with leash manners. He loves interacting with other dogs and does well with his kennel mate, showing that he enjoys canine companionship. With kindness, patience, and a family willing to help him feel safe and secure, Republic has all the potential to become an incredibly loyal, loving, and rewarding companion.
