Information
Gretchen is a small, mix-breed girl and is so sweet and cuddly. She looks like a German Shepherd only in miniature form. She loves to just sit on your lap or by you and get pets. Gretchen is crate trained and house broken. She gets along with other dogs and was with cats at one point and just ignored them. She is approximately 9 yrs old, but is still very spry for her age and has a lot left to give. She is shy at first, but will warm up to new people. Gretchen was taken into a shelter after being hit by a car and was within hours of being euthanized. She was saved and is now waiting for a new loving home to call her own.
Gretchen has not been with us long and we are still learning about her.
