About

Nico is a striking black-sable male German Shepherd puppy, combining the bold coat of a sable with the rich depth of a black, making him a standout in any home. Nico’s coloring is a rare and beautiful variation of the German Shepherd breed. Sable refers to a coat pattern of black and tan or gray hairs, and in Nico’s case, the black base is so rich it appears almost solid, with subtle sable markings. This look is prized for its dramatic contrast and unique beauty. As a puppy, his coat will continue to develop, but breeders often note that dark sables can deepen over time. Sable German Shepherds inherit the same temperament as standard-colored GSDs — affectionate, alert, and eager to please — with the added visual flair of their coat. Nico is expected to be: Confident and alert — with a keen sense of awareness. Loyal and family-oriented — forming strong bonds with his people. Playful yet protective — enjoying activities with children and adults, while guarding his space. Responsive to early socialization — important for a working or family dog. To keep Nico happy and well-behaved: Exercise — daily walks, playtime, and mental challenges like obedience training or agility. Socialization — expose him to different people, animals, and environments early. Training — start basic commands and social cues as soon as possible. Health care — regular vet check-ups, vaccinations, and grooming to maintain coat health. Nico is more than just a puppy — he’s a rare, striking black-sable male German Shepherd with the intelligence, loyalty, and energy of the breed. With proper care, training, and socialization, he’ll grow into a confident, protective, and loving companion who stands out not just in appearance, but in character. New Beginnings Shepherd Rescue is a volunteer-based rescue, we work very hard to help as many adoptable GSDs as possible. Most of our dogs come from high kill shelters across the country, so sadly we do not have any background information on them.....we work very hard to get to know each and every dog brought into our program in need of a new beginning in their lives. We do not take animals with known aggression issues (some may not like other dogs, cats, or may require older kids as opposed to younger children, but we will let you know everything that we know) most of these beautiful dogs have been faithful and loving family pets for their entire lives, yet have lost their homes and families through no fault of their own. If you are interested in opening your heart and home to one of these amazing dogs... Please email Murphy@NewBeginningsRescue.com and put Request for Adoption Application in the subject line. If you don't hear from us in 3 days, please send us a gentle reminder and one of us will get right on it. Please indicate the dog you are interested in meeting, where it says preference on the application! You may also email julie@newbeginningsrescue.com , we are always happy to answer any questions you may have and help you find your new companion and best friend If you give them your heart, they will give you theirs
