Child Interaction Observations
All interaction between animals and children should be supervised at all times.
When Quincy first arrived at the shelter in January, he was listed as 5 years old, but now that he’s in AGSDR foster care, we’re thinking he’s closer to 3 ½—his energy is off the charts! Or as Molly Shannon would say on SNL, “I can run and jump and jump and run!” Quincy is always on the move, showing off his happy spirit - even the vet agrees, calling him a “Happy Boy!”
With his unique shorter front leg, Quincy has a clever way of using it like an arm, adding to his one-of-a-kind charm. Though he started off sad and confused in the shelter, Quincy’s personality came bouncing back when his foster mom arrived. Now he’s busy getting to know his foster siblings—and proving he’s got a great sense of humor. Just ask his foster sister, who wasn’t quite sure how to feel when Quincy playfully tugged her fluffy tail (they’re buddies now, though, and love to play together).
Quincy’s not just about his four-legged pals, though. He’s also been winning over his foster mom’s 11-year-old granddaughter. He’s got the charm, the playfulness, and plenty of love to share—he’s just waiting to find his perfect forever home. We know you’ll love Quincy, because he already loves you!
NOTE: In our experience many German Shepherd Dogs are very good with kids. In our bios, we may provide information on our experience with a particular dog and children. However AGSDR discourages ALL unsupervised animal/child interaction. Children should be supervised at all times when they interact with ANY animal, whether it is a horse, dog, cat, bunny, lizard, or any other species. Even loving household pets can have a grumpy day, or otherwise get tired of a child's attention, so proper supervision is essential for the well being of any child and any pet.
The entire biography of this dog is based solely upon our volunteers' experiences with the dog. The dog's age and weight are estimates, and statements about the health, temperament, training, and ability to get along with other animals, children, cats and other dogs, are estimated solely based on our volunteer's experiences with this dog. Your experiences with this dog may be quite different than those of our volunteers.
