Champ von Coesfeld ia a stunning 10-11 month old German Shepherd. As a rescue, we always hope to find a dog like Champ. So many people are looking for their soul dog, one that is kind and gentle, good with any dog and even cats. We understand now why volunteers at the South L. A. shelter made a heart touching video to help him get out, against all odds. It took us no time to call and ask if we could rescue Champ. He is a gentle soul who has been bounced around in his short life. He isn’t a dog who will instantly jump into your lap and give you kisses, but he will follow you around and be right there next to you. He just needs a little time so he understands that you aren’t going to leave him behind. He is so easy on the leash that walking him is like a dream. Champ stays close to you, so you never have to worry about passing anyone or other dogs. He's likely housebroken, so we assume his life must have been good at one point. He loves other dogs and is so happy in the playgroup where he can run and play with his canine friends. He would be a great buddy to another dog, even a crabby one, we think. We are looking for someone who deserves amazing Champ. Could it be you?
