Lafayette

Smart, affectionate, and playful: Lafayette has it all!

Lafayette is an adorable 8-month-old German Shepherd who is learning and growing every day. He has so much potential just waiting to shine, and he responds beautifully to kind guidance and rewards. Praise, treats, baby talk and even kissy sounds are all great motivators for him. This sweet boy is eager to please his people! He already knows "Sit" and "Paw," and loves interactive games like fetch and tug. Stuffy toys and squeaky plushies are his favorites. Once the toys come out, his confidence really grows.

While Lafayette can sometimes need a moment to warm up in new situations, repetition and familiarity help him relax quickly. With people he's gotten to know, he shows a loose body and seeks out low-key affection, leaning in gently to pets and even offering his paw unprompted. Lafayette's history tells an encouraging story, too. He's described as a great dog who is crate trained, house trained, quiet and generally easy to live with. He's done well meeting new people, has positive experiences with other dogs and has even visited a horse farm where he did great with the horses!
