Demo von Derkner is a striking looking 2 year old German Shepherd. He is Westside’s “Hunk of the Month” (March 2015) but don’t you think he should be “Hunk of the Year?” Gorgeous Demo seems to have the whole package: his bright amber eyes are always focused on you and it is easy to see how intelligent he is. This mid-to-high energy guy walks great on leash, although he might be a little excitable when he first leaves his kennel and, therefore, require some correction. On leash he meets passing dogs stiffly but does not react. Demo is confident but can also be very goofy and lovable; he tries to give you the cutest bear hugs but will sit immediately if you correct him. Demo’s favorite activities are going out on walks (he would make an excellent running or jogging partner), hiking and definitely cuddling. Demo could use more socialization with other dogs; he does not like dogs who challenge his authority and will react off-leash to growling dogs. Since he can be unpredictable with other dogs off-leash, we would recommend him as an only dog for now. What we can promise is that life with Demo will be so fulfilling and filled with joy that you won’t even think of getting another.
