In the shelter’s words

This is a courtesy post for the owner of this dog. You will not be adopting from Castle of Dreams Animal Rescue. Please contact the owner directly through the contact info provided below. Meet Vader, a German shepherd mix male puppy born on April 2, 2026. This is what his owner has to say... Vader was the smallest puppy of his litter at birth but by the end of the first month, he had become the largest. This remarkable turnaround reflected his healthy development and exceptional growth. Vader is quite honestly one of the most beautiful puppies I've ever seen. His jet black coat, bright white blaze, tan markings and piercing blue eyes make him impossible to overlook. People who meet him almost always comment on his eyes first. As handsome as he is, it's his personality that really stands out. Vader is confident without being pushy, playful without being wild and affectionate without being demanding. He's happy to run and wrestle with the pack, but he is just as content relaxing beside you. He gets along exceptionally well with his siblings and adult dogs and he has a calm, easygoing temperament that makes him a pleasure to be around. Watching him grow has been incredible. He began life as the smallest puppy in the litter but quickly caught up, eventually becoming the largest by the end of his first month. That determination combined with his gentle personality has mad him one of the favorites. Finding Vader the right family won't be easy, not because he won't make an amazing companion, but because saying goodbye to him is going to be one of the hardest parts of raising this litter. He deserves a family that will love him every bit as much as we have. Vader is up to date on age appropriate vaccines including rabies and will be neutered prior to adoption.
