Scout (aka Jelly Bean) is a very intelligent, approximately 3-year-old, german shepherd mix. She is a smaller Shepherd, weighing 40 lbs. and is short in stature. Scout loves affection. She has been working with a trainer to help her learn to control her impulsive nature. She crates well, knows sit, down, place, come and heel. Her ideal home would be one with a calm energy and not a lot of stimulation. She is happiest with routine and structure and when she can simply hang out with her people. She needs a home with someone who can help her to maintain a calm mindset. We would not recommend kids for Scout as it will lead to her getting overexcited.
