A 5-year-old male dog is looking for his forever home after spending nearly three years at a rescue facility. 

Copeland is a German shepherd and Belgian Malinois mix pup that has been at the City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue in Washington, D.C., for nearly three years. 

He weighs roughly 75 lbs. and loves to run around the yard, the rescue noted.

Copeland's ideal home would be in a suburban or rural area and include a backyard where he can run and play, the rescue added.

At first, Copeland had some issues adjusting to the city life, the rescue said.

City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue took Copeland to a behavioral board and training facility in Richmond, Virginia, where he was trained.
