Messi von Rainer is a gorgeous 10-12 month old German Shepherd. He is a powerhouse of affection and one good-looking guy! Racing with excitement out of the kennel, he immediately tries to follow directions and is responsive to corrections. He has plenty of energy and uses it to his advantage, meeting other dogs in his big-dude sort of way, a friendly and happy presence. On leash he exhibits a similar temperament, as he doesn’t pull and meets dogs, on leash or in playgroups, with the same happiness, never showing aggression and tolerant of dogs of all energy levels. Messi will do well with an active family or any family that wants to know how much they are beloved by a dog. Of course, with this level of bliss, Messi can travel out of state, too.
